I believe in volunteering and have completed over 400 logged hours during my sophomore & junior years of high school. This was one requirement for the 4-H Gold Award (equivalent to Eagle Scout). I am also a Junior Shooting Sports coach, a teen leader at Kentucky State 4-H Shooting Sports Camp, and I am an instructor for the Kentucky Hunter Education Safety program. I volunteer at school and in the community on projects that benefit my community. My life has been blessed with loving and caring parents and I want to share my talents and abilities with those in need. A positive role model is needed by todays youth and I want to be a part of making this a better world.
Managing academics and sports takes a full-time commitment and I believe I have demonstrated this ability while in high school. College will require financial assistance. My parents are both self-employed but the economy has hurt both businesses. I am hoping to obtain a scholarship or other financial support to make my college dreams a reality. I am of Catholic faith, dedicated, honest, drug free, and a team player. It takes a team to win a football game and I would like to play for a team that shares that value.
