Personal Statement
My goal is to earn a college degree, as I will be one of the first in my immediate family to do so. I understand the importance of higher learning and what it would mean for me and my family, and how it would impact the rest of my life. I aspire to possibly go to med school, but I haven't ruled out a business degree. I've been blessed to have been raised in a home where the emphasis on working hard and not making excuses for my actions are the norm. I'm also very appreciative to have parents that have instilled "old school" values in me that not only give me a strong work ethic and leadership skills, as well as a tremendous respect for authority. I don't take anything for granted and I firmly believe I'm a high character young man who believes in positive mannerism, accountability, highly motivated, and can handle adversity. I know I would make a great addition to any university that would provide me an opportunity, as I would bring a tremendous amount of work ethic and passion, on and off the field.
