Junior year Highl...Personal Statement
My personal motto is “I am not afraid of hard work.” I’m highly competitive and inspire my teammates to be the same. I do not like to lose in anything I do and daily I push myself to be my best. I am vegan (plant-based) and very interested in conserving our world we live in. My aspirations are to study to become a neurosurgeon while continuing my athletic career.
I have a part time job at Dick’s Sporting Goods while attending Kent State University full time.
I have held a 4.0 or higher GPA all of my years in school.
I am a multi sport athlete playing varsity for volleyball, basketball, cheerleading, track & field, swimming, and cross country. I also play both sand volleyball at The Sandbox and JO volleyball at IGNITE.
I am involved with Student Council (President), Class Office (President), 4-H, HPAC, SADD club, National Honors Society, Leadership, and Spanish Club (Vice-President).
I have been involved in 4-H since the age of 6 showing steers & hogs.
I will work at the highest level for my team at all times with a smile on my face!
I plan on contributing to both the volleyball and track and field team at whatever college is the best fit for me.
