Personal Statement
I have moved several times in my life and lived around the world in a military family. My dad retired after serving 23 years as a U.S. Marine. I have been able to travel all over Europe and have been very fortunate to see places few of my classmates have seen. I attended both public and military schools in Virginia, North Carolina, Germany, and Florida. I have gone to school with every type of person you can think of; often times it has been difficult trying to fit in as a "new kid". I began playing football when I was 8 and have played every year since then. Although I've been on the varsity football team the last two years, this year I wanted to spread my wings and I applied to become a member of the Student Government Association at my school. I'm not sure what I want to study when I go to college. I really enjoy history and have done very well in my history classes. I am interested in sports and sports management, I also have interest in joining the military like my dad after I complete college.
