Personal Statement


I love basketball! My favorite part of the game is defense. My family has always encouraged me to work hard, focus and give everything I do one hundred percent. During the summer, when I am not training, traveling or playing basketball, I look forward to volunteering and helping in my community. Last summer, I volunteered at the Boys & Girls Club for several weeks. This summer, I was fortunate to be selected for a 9 week paid internship at the public library.

My dream is to attend college and earn my degree while playing college basketball at the Division 1 level. I enjoy watching both college and professional basketball. Since 2012, I have played on Elite basketball teams; I am always the Team Leader. I always give one hundred percent, on and off the court. Every coach that has ever coached me says, I am one of the most coachable athletes, they have coached.
