Personal Statement

I began my swimming career at the age of 8 with the influence of my two older sisters, who also swam competitively in club and high school. My oldest sister swam at the collegiate level for four years. I see myself in collegiate swimming not only because I have a passion for the sport, but I enjoy challenging myself and love to race against other swimmers. I am a very dedicated and hard-working individual when it comes to the acitivities I have a passion for.  
I work hard in the classroom, maintaining a high GPA and take my schoolwork very seriously. I have volunteered at various places, such as food shelters and churches.
Swimming on a club team for nine years and swimming for my high school team for three years has developed my team bonding and leadership skills as a teammate.  I am interested in pursuing a degree in mechanical or chemical engineering. 
I see collegiate level swimming as a once in a lifetime opportunity to swim another four years at a higher level in swimming. I enjoy the team camaraderie that comes with the sport and helping me grow as an individual. I plan to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering.  I enjoy creating things using technology and understanding how things are put together and work.
