Personal Statement
In addition to my love of baseball I have always had a love of Astronomy. So, my ultimate goal is to follow a path in college that offers me an opportunity to play baseball while I pursue a degree in a Math or Science field and then, to set my sights on becoming an Astronaut (or maybe on playing for the Astros!) I have had the unique experience of attending a Project Based Charter School where my academic achievements include creating environmental documentaries, working with lawyers on real-life cases to exonerate the wrongly convicted, and serving a six week internship teaching a 6th grade Engineering class. These experiences have led me to become the confident student that I am, able to thrive in even the most challenging academic environment. Having this awesome educational opportunity meant giving up the chance to play in upper division athletics, but I did not let that stop me. I still played my heart out and achieved some top-level stats in my league/division. I truly believe I have the potential to surpass what I have done so far and really look forward to bringing my commitment to baseball excellence to a school that can offer me an excellent education in return.
