1. How did you get involved in paintball?
For my 10th birthday my friend suggested we go paintballing at the old Paintball Gallery in San Juan Capistrano, CA. My mom got mad for paying all that money for me to play and she watched me sit in the back being scared by the balls.

2. With all the money you've spent and time you've invested, if you could go back, would you do it all over again?
Yes…All the money and time is worth it in the end and now I get to play with people who I once thought of as idols…It definitely paid off.

3. What do you hope to achieve before you retire from paintball?

I hope to help bring the sport to mainstream and possibly on television so I could watch the sport I love with my family.

4. What's the best thing about the sport?
The people behind the sport and supporting it 100%…and hanging the flag, that's always a good feeling.

5. The worst?
The people negative stuff that the media loves to prey on.
