Personal Statement

My vision as a student-athlete is to attend a major university which will inspire and challenge me as I obtain my Bachelors degree in the field of chemical engineering. While it's a football player's dream to play and excel in the NFL, I believe that the objective at this point in my life is to STUDY, work hard on and off the field, help others in the community and represent my family, coaches, teachers and mentors in a positive light. The gridiron breaks a player down and with great coaching, rebuilds that player into something even greater...a part of something bigger. This is why I have a strong desire to play and pursue football at the next level! Being an out of district student/athlete has meant less sleep, better time management and has taught me the meaning of perseverance, but has been well worth the effort and sacrifice. Coaches, thank you for taking the time to view my profile!
