If I could eat one meal for the rest of my life...
Chipotle. The mix of different ingredients and food groups makes it ideal.
Where in the World Would I Want to Visit?
There’s so many places out there that I don’t have one specific destination, as I know that destinations, especially touristy places, can be a let down. Instead of looking forward to one place, I strive to try to travel to a collection of places instead.
Favorite Movie Quote:

“Ah you think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!”

This quote, in my opinion, is a perfect example of how tough times can grow a person and/or a team. Whether it be through life, sports, relationships, events, etc., many things, both good and bad, will happen.
Role Model:
I’ve never really had a huge role model, I just try to dissect the mentalities of people on TV. One of my bigger inspirations in sports is Joe Burrow, simply because of the mindset. He contains a sort of stoic, automatic confidence that is inspiring and certainly noticeable.
What I want t be when I Grow up?
I plan on going to college after I graduate HS. A major I’m paying close attention to right now is sports management. I think it’s important to obtain balance in your life by being unbalanced. With a job, I think it’s important to have both stability and a potential for upside. With a sports management job, I think you get sort of both, to briefly describe it. I, also, just find managing sports much more fun and amusing than managing some type of office job, for example(not to say that there is anything wrong with having an office job, of course.)
Who are you named after?
I don’t know what I was named after, I just know my parents liked the name Davis.
If you could be an animal, what would you be?
I’d definitely be a dog. A dog’s life can be tough, but the way all dog’s seem to positively interact with their families is nice to see.

Leadership Understanding: Experiences / Hopes

# data[].attributes.body
Leadership Experience:
My leadership stems from simple school projects, to leading a team into a win-or-go-home, type of game. While sports, in the end, is just entertainment, it really goes beyond sports.

There is a certain type of pressure that can follow a team that many people are not used to.
Hope to Learn About Leadership:
Just more overall experience/knowledge and/or wisdom on the subject. Being young, I will obviously be naive to certain things, there’s nothing wrong with that. While I don’t have any one specific area in mind, just general experience,knowledge, and wisdom is what I hope to learn.

Leadership Understanding: Definition / Skills

Leadership Understanding: Definition / Skills

# data[].attributes.body
Leadership Definition: A person’s ability to lead a group of people effectively. If a person cannot lead a group or team, then they aren’t a good leader.
Skills a Leader Must Have:
No particular order:

1. Communication: It’s absolutely imperative to circulate your ideas and plans among your group/team, and additionally, fetch ideas from your members or teammates.

2. People-skills: Having the ability to not only communicate with, but interact, understand, and have experience with people.

3. The right mindset: Having the right mindset isn’t focused on one specific trait but rather a collection of traits. Through the ups and downs, people leaving and people entering, new tasks, new seasons, etc., the right mindset is absolutely key.

Current Leadership Skills: For someone my age, I have experience with people:As a result of playing on many different sports teams, living in different states/regions, and going to different schools, I have seen, and dealt with, more personalities than an average kid.
I believe in my mindset:As a young person, my mindset is bound to still change, but I believe in what I got. I truly believe and trust in myself and my journey. I try to stay genuine, while also considering the perspective of others, when necessary.
SOB ability:Not to be harsh(I hope saying “SOB” doesn’t count as a bad word) but I believe I have what it takes to generally say no. It’s good to be kind and please people, but every now and then, as leaders, we will need to say no and potentially be blunt. I possess this trait, when necessary.
An understanding of ups and downs:This can feed into a mindset, but simply put, I understand that there will be rough days. Rough days can, ironically, be good for a team, and cause the team to grow, become less fragile, and become stronger.

Hobbies: I enjoy travelling and seeing many different places. Being able to travel and discover is a part of who I am. I enjoy working out, improving my fitness, and pushing myself.
Achievements: In no particular order, one of my top 3 achievements has been consistency in school; year in and year out, I have been able to get good grades. A sum of all my athletic achievements: I’ve been fortunate enough to achieve many goals in many different sports. Finally, my travel: though I haven’t traveled the world, I’ve had the honor of being able to see different places, live in different places, and take away different lessons from these experiences.
Goals: All three of my personal, family, and career goals have something in common: I want to be my best self. Consistency is important, and though I may not have a specific goal, it is important for me to continually improve and stay on my path.
Fears: I don’t have any huge fears, as a lot of what happens in this world is out of our control. When I become short-sighted, and forget about the big picture, I can get caught up in small nuances.

# data[].attributes.body
Passions: I’m passionate about going out and exploring, experiencing new things. I believe that there is value in experiencing many different things and places, through the ups and the downs.

School Experience: I’ve had a good time in school. I’ve been able to learn many different things and meet many different people.

Extracurricular Activities: I play football and run track. I try to be as competitive as possible in these sports. I am a member of BETA Club, as I strive to get as many community hours as I can.

Background: I was born in Dayton, Ohio in 2004. Most of my family is either from Ohio or Virginia. I have lived in Ohio, El Paso, Tx, and now Concord, Nc.

Influence: My dad has influenced me the most. He spent 30 year in the Air Force, before retiring; my dad now takes the reins as the AFJROTC instructor at my school. His experience across many different platforms is part of what inspires me.

Values: I believe in the importance of being individual, and not getting drowned in what your family, school, community, society, etc., wants you to do. I believe that there is power in treating people the right way.
