Personal Statement
I am 18 years old, and fell in love with kicking when I was introduced to it by my Middle School Soccer coach. After many years of training, kicking camps and personal training, I began to feel that this would be a skill that could help pay for an education to achieve my future goals in life.
While in high school, I was introduced to the Young Life (YL) International religious program, a non-denominational organization that works with young people to guide them to a relationship with Christ. Being a part of this has made an incredible change in my life, and how I see my future. I am now a Student Leader in YL, am a member of the Worship Team at my church and have developed a very real ability to counsel other's with their problems. I hope to obtain a Religion Major in college, with a minor in Theater Arts, and pursue a career with the YL organization.
I was introduced to the Theater Arts program in high school, just a couple of years ago. Like Religion, it immediately captured my fancy, and provided the goal of a Minor in Theater Arts. I recently attended auditions with the Virginia Theater Arts (VTA) organization in Norfolk, where I performed for a number of Virginia College Theater Arts programs, and received callbacks from 8 Virginia colleges with offers to join their programs.
I can see my path to my future, and intend to follow it to my goals and dreams.
As of 2/21/2017, I have decided to play football for Averette University, and pursue my education in the Theater Arts, and Religious Studies.
