- 2022 Highlights
Personal Statement
I was born in Lansing, Michigan in 2001. My father joined the Navy in 2003 and moved my family and I to Jacksonville, Florida in 2004. Aside from the many deployments and the moving from state to state, I have had a really good life. My parents ensured that I played sports early and often, from baseball, to cross country, I have done it all. I have played tackle football every season since 2008, making this my 12th consecutive season on the field. Starting both offense and defense the last few years has helped me become an even better leader on the field, because I know that my teammates count on me each and every play.
There are so many things that interest me regarding careers, so I haven't quite narrowed down what exactly I want to study. I try to pick my mom and dad's brain as much as I can, because I know they want what is best for me and wont steer me wrong. Something pertaining to sports after college really intrigues me. I was thinking Athletic Director or Director of Player Engagement. Something where I can stay close to the game when I hang them up. Otherwise, Science has always interested me. Especially biology and astronomy. Heading my fathers advice, I want to do something fun and that doesn't feel like a job. Something that really interests me. Sports has always been that "thing".
