Personal Statement
As a student- athlete, one of the goals I work towards every day at practice and at school, is to become a successful player while still being an independent and successful student. In working towards my collegiate dream, I have learned that I can be both a leader and follower, and I believe this helps me learn and grow, not only as a player but as a person in general. The idea of playing on a team, and working with your teammates towards a common goal, keeps me pushing myself to learn and achieve more than I would have ever thought I could. This is one of the goals I have always set forth for myself, and I would like to continue to working towards achieving this dream at the next level. I also understand that there is always something to improve on or learn in any aspect of life. This is the main reasons I continue to love volleyball and strive to become a better player. The challenge of new concepts to learn and better competition keeps me working hard while still loving every second of it. I have the type of personality, that if you would tell me something was impossible, or too challenging, I would be the first to work towards proving it possible or just challenging enough. I believe this because if you go through life with a “can't” type of attitude, you limit yourself from what you are actually able to achieve.
