Personal Statement
My collegiate goals include both focusing on furthuring my education and competing at the collegiate level in the sport of soccer. I have been faced with many challenges in my short life time, including being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 11. I have never let this disease stop me or slow me down, if anything, it has motivated me to be an inspiration to other young individuals facing this diagnosis. I feel my best qualitities are my positive attitude and my competitive nature. I like to be a leader on and off the field. While it has always been my dream to play soccer at the collegiate level, I also realize the importance of my education and will strive to excell in both.
