Personal Statement
Hi
My name is Matthew Dean and I live in Cimarron,New Mexico. I am a student athlete. I have competed in state for three years in a row. I have competed at Cross Country, Basketball,Track State levels. My primary focus in sports is basketball. I am very flexible because my schedule calls for it between school, sports and work. I have been a power forward/Small forward varsity starter for my team for 4 years in a tow. I have competed in state track for relays and hurdles. I earned third place in state for Hurdles. I strive for a good education but also a place to push myself and grow in skill. I am willing to take my life to the next level and work endlessly to reach my goals. My dream is to play college ball and I will do what it takes. I am looking to go into school for business management because of my experience as a manager of a restaurant for five years i know i enjoy working with people and being a hard working leader.
''I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.
I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying.
Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.''
