He enjoyed playing Call of Duty, Madden and NBA 2K for hours on end. His favorite sports teams included: The Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, and The Dallas Cowboys. He loved to laugh and joke with his close friends and family. He had a smile and aura that would light up a room instantly when he entered.
