Personal Statement
To be the best version of myself, at all times, has been my goal all my life. I want to be best I can possibly be to show my appreciation to those who have influenced my life. I have a high standard for myself in all aspects of my life. I strive do well in school, excel at athletics, and better myself as a human being. Coming over to America halfway into my childhood from Japan has enabled me to think from a different point of view. Having to adapt to a second culture and language has taught me to always be curious and to seek challenges.
I gained an interest in kicking a football over the summer before my freshman year. My father wanted me to try out for football one year and it grew on me. Through kicking, I found myself being self motivated and I’m always looking to challenge myself. Perfecting my craft, of kicking, has translated into my life off the field by always wanting to do the best in everything that I do. I want to go to college to further my education and love for football to become a contributing person of society.
