Personal Statement

Making it to the college level has always been a goal of mine from the very start of when I started playing. Not only do I think that I have the golf game to get me there but I have very good work ethic, character, determination, I'm coach able, and am willing to put in whatever I have to in order to succeed. I want to strive academically just as much as I want to succeed on the golf course. Its been a goal of mine to go to a college where I will be able to get a good education and play for a team that I can play for and display my skills. Making it to the PA State Championship has really put a boost into my game and now I know what it takes to play with the best players in the state and knowing I can compete. Not having the strongest team this year forced me to use leadership skills and to be named captain really showed me how to be a leader and I believe that I also have what it takes to be a leader. Having a dad who is in the PGA Philadelphia section has really helped learn how to play the game by caddying for him and experiencing fellow professionals play as well.
