Personal Statement
I am first a Christian. I place God and Jesus Christ first in my life. I am second, a son to my parents, whom I strive to always respect and represent in such a manner as I have been raised. I am third, an older brother. I pride myself in leading my two younger siblings by example. I am fourth, a student of academics. Since a very young age, I have applied myself as to achieve my personal goal of being in the top 5% of my class.
I am fifth, a student athlete. I TRULY LOVE THE GAME OF FOOTBALL. It has assisted in the development of who I’ve become. I've developed into a young man that knows and understands the true meaning of, "persevere and overcome". My passion is, not just to participate, but to lead my team, in the game of football. This has taught me how to address and conquer my adversaries in life. I am a true 6' 2.5'', one of the youngest in my class of 565 Seniors. I have a class ranking of 19. I wear a size 15 shoe. I know, as do my teammates, that I am the leader of our team. I shoulder the good with the bad and do not let my emotions control me. I do not wear my feelings on my sleeve. I pride myself in having the ability to stay positive, regardless of the situation. I never back down from a challenge. In turn my teammates have formed a true respect for me and my position as their leader. I live everyday by the motto “let my actions speak louder than any words that can ever be said". This is how I represent who I am.
