BIO

Tarquinius is a Samoan tight end from Auckland, now based on the Gold Coast, Australia. A standout multi-sport athlete, he excelled in basketball, volleyball, and swimming, representing New Zealand at the FIBA U15 level, winning national titles, captaining championship teams, and competing nationally in swimming from a young age.

Despite no prior experience in American football, he was scouted at a national basketball tournament and earned a full scholarship to the NFL Academy Asia-Pacific, becoming the first internationally recruited student.

Currently studying a broad academic program including science, maths, and media, Tarquinius balances his development on and off the field. Outside of football, he enjoys spending time with family and friends. A fan of the San Francisco 49ers, he looks up to George Kittle as his favorite player.
