Biography
He was one of the students who laughed when Knox Overstreet read his poem out loud to the class. Because he laughed, Keating made him get up and read his poem, which was simply "the cat sat on the mat". After everyone laughs at him, Keating gives a little speech about how poems can be as simple as his and still have great meaning. He once ate a rock off of Flathead Cameron’s flat head. Then went to the hospital after getting rock grains stuck in his throat. ):
