Personal Statement

Hello, My name is Benjamin Cole, I aspire to be successful in everything I do. As a kid I always wanted to be a pilot, so I met with the flight school owner here in Cheyenne. We made a deal and I scrubbed toilets and cleaned the place to earn flight time. As I flew, I decided it wasn't the right career for me, so I backed out of that job. I now have my CNA license and I am exploring the medical field. I love my job and medicine, but the one thing I love more is golf. I have golfed since I was 5. Golf has been a staple in my life and it has taught me honesty, dedication, and hard work. I never doubt my desire to golf Collegiately. It has been an aspiration since I started thinking about college. I will work my butt off to be a starter on any team I am recruited to. I will respond and talk with any coach that contacts me, and I will be reaching out to many to find the place for me to play!
