Personal Statement

I am interested in the engineering and/or environmental field, and that is most important to me.  I want to be on a team where I can make a difference on the roster, my game continues to grow, and I have excellent career opportunities when I graduate.  I want a school and a team that are the right fit--academically and athletically.  My biggest strength is my athleticism.  My speed, hand/eye coordination and agility are the center of my game.  Physically, I am still growing and developing, and believe my best tennis is yet to come.  Second to that is my work ethic.  I take my training, both tennis and fitness, very seriously.  I am used to balancing a 12+ hour/week training schedule with a rigorous academic curriculum, extracurricular activities, and USTA tournaments.  I believe balance is key, and a college that affords me the opportunity to further my many interests would be the best fit.
