Phillip was born and raised in San Jose, California before making his way to the DFW Metroplex. During his time in San Jose, Phillip took part in numerous broadcasts for high school and junior college sports since 2012. While calling games for the NFHS Network and NorCal Sports TV, Phillip has called a wide variety of sports and has even done play-by-play for regional and state championship games for football and basketball throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Now that he has settled in to his new home in Texas, he is grateful to have joined Champion Sports in 2022 and all the broadcasting opportunities that have come his way since.

Away from the press box, Phillip lives in Arlington with his wife Meggan (who is also quite the avid sports fan herself). Phillip still holds true to his Bay Area roots with his sports fandom, but has gravitated to the Texas Longhorns for college sports. Additionally, conference realignment has provided him with his new Big 12 team in the Baylor Bears. When he is not watching the big games, he is enjoying all sorts of new food experiences (whether it be restaurants or trying new recipes at home), spending time with family and friends, attending any live sporting event possible, and trying to find new research to add to his growing number of fantasy football championships.
