Personal Statement
“You’re a natural athlete, put it to use for your future”. The Pastor of my church said these words to me after our youth group performed a liturgical dance that included jumping straight up from a still position. In middle school I tried volleyball and cheerleading but an impromptu race in the cul-de-sac led to the start of my track career. Coming in as a freshman and being put up against our team’s top sprinter was challenging and rewarding. I soon learned what is was like to commit to a team effort and to better myself individually as an athlete.
I am looking for a program that can benefit from my never ending quest to be a better athlete, can appreciate someone who brings enthusiasm, good character and has leadership abilities to round out the package. I am also looking for a school which will be a good fit for me academically. My goal is to become an pediatrician or an athletic trainer!
