Playing college basketball has been a dream of mine since I was in elementary school.

I like to eat healthy and stay in shape. By pursuing a major in this field, I will be able to help others lead a healthier lifestyle. I know that college athletics can only take me so far, so I understand that a good education is a priority for my future success.
