Personal Statement
I believe that basketball has defined my character and has greatly contributed to the person I have become. I have a natural ability in knowing the game and great court awareness. Teamwork is vital. I continually am communicating with my teammates throughout the game, whether letting them know that I have their back, or to cheer them on.
I do not shy away from challenges in the classroom, as I take all advanced and AP classes offered in all core subjects every year. I continually strive to better myself and push myself in all aspects of life.
I have been involved with an annual mission trip focused on improving our local environment. This has also led to a greater involvement in my church and youth group. This is exciting for me, because meeting new people brings me absolute joy! Two other community activities close to my heart are Community Action Southwest, where for the past 10 years we have adopted families at Christmas time and Special Olympics.
In my free time I simply enjoy being social, hanging out with my friends, and traveling.
