Personal Statement

Ever since I picked up a basketball, made my first shot, and been on my first basketball team I've known this is my passion and what I want to do in life. I would love to continue my Academic and Athletic career at a University and earn a degree in economics or computer science. As a college athlete, I would want to play my role whatever the coach needs out of me and make an instant impact as a freshman in the program as I think I have what it takes to turn my dreams into reality. Every day I go to school with the right attitude and come into the classroom respecting my teachers and fellow students. Every day, I come ready to learn, ask questions, and make sure I get the best grades I can. This year my junior year i'm taking every dual credit class I could take which are college classes so when I got straight A's it already gave me a 4.0 college GPA which many high school athletes won't already have. I would be a good candidate for any college program I'm extremely coachable and if they are looking for a hungry forward willing to put in the hours no one else wants to put in. I'm one of those players who love running/conditioning, when others get happy when conditioning is canceled, I'm disappointed I love to improve myself and put in the work to become a better player this very reason my work ethic will put me past the rest.
