Personal Statement

I am passionate about volleyball and have lots of drive, heart and competitiveness.  I know that playing at the college level will take sacrifices that I have been through in my life already.  I am mentally tough and focused.  I know my team will be my family,  friends and support group and I want to play for a coach who wants the team as well as myself to succeed.  Being a student-athlete at a school that has the potential to help me develop on a professional level in the future while still playing the game I love would be my goal.
