Personal Statement
(VIEW FULL STATEMENT FOR CAREER ACCOLADES):
My name is Mitchell Brown, I am 16 years old and I live in Chelsea Michigan where I am attending Chelsea High School as a sophomore. I started diving and swimming at five years old. At that point, I found immediately that diving was my passion. I love the thrill of flipping and twisting through the air. And I thrive on competing and pushing myself to be the best diver I can be. I train multiple hours a day to fine tune my skills. I compete in USA Diving with Wolverine Diving Club at the University of Michigan. I am currently also diving and swimming with Chelsea High School. I also dove and swam on the Chelsea Beach Middle School Swim and Dive team where I was also named Team Captain. I also swam and dove in the Washtenaw Interclub Swim Conference and Southern Michigan Swim League for 8 years and hoping it finally comes back this summer after a COVID hiatus.
My favorite diving event by far is platform. I love the adrenaline charge of diving from those heights. My favorite dives on platform are 105b and 405c both on 7m.
