2015 Highlights
2016 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My goal is to be a student-athlete for a university that can help me develop into a well educated adult. I love to learn a variety of subjects and enjoy challenging myself to gather more knowledge and experience every day. I am particularly interested in medical sciences as well as the pharmaceutical industry. Being able to expand by learning and also compete in the sport I love would be an amazing experience for me.
I work very hard in the classroom and persist on keeping my grades as high as they can be. Using this same work ethic, I am able to transfer that kind of hard work on the track. Although I'm aware that academic priorities outweigh those of any sport, I strive to exceed in both of those categories to the best of my ability.
With my Catholic education as well as having some example setting parents, I feel that I have become a person consisting of strong character and good morals. I can only hope that whichever university I attend will continue leading me in the right direction.
