Personal Statement
As a multi-sport athlete, I believe the highs and lows I have experienced over the years have helped develop my character and fortitude on and off the court. I feel as though I have grown the most as a student-athlete these past two years, as in addition to taking honors and AP classes, I traveled and competed throughout the country with my club volleyball teams, the Milwaukee Sting and Milwaukee Volleyball Club. I have learned that I am at my best as a team player, try to make those around me better, and hope to contribute to and compete with a volleyball team at the college level.
I view my studies as my priority, and the opportunity to play sports as the privilege that comes along with dedication and hard work. Over the years I have balanced my life through academics, band, volunteering, and the pursuit of summer and winter sports and activities, including volleyball, football, basketball, track, tennis, snowboarding, snowmobiling, 4-wheeling, soccer, lacrosse, and weight lifting. Since dedicating myself to year-round volleyball, I augment my physical conditioning with tennis, weight training, and intramural basketball.
I believe I not only have the talent to compete for a college team, but the character, work-ethic, and leadership skills to make an immediate impact on your program. Utilize my willingness and enthusiasm to learn and be coached.
