Since birth, two things have been constant in my life. I have loved hockey and I have been extremely competitive. Like most competitive people, I hate losing much more than I like to win and on the same note I hate getting scored on much more than I like to score. Because of this I have shaped the way I play hockey around making the responsible play with the puck. I'm the player you want to put out on the ice at the end of the game to defend a one goal lead. I’m the player you put on the penalty kill because I will take a hit to clear the puck.
Not only have I excelled in hockey because of this attitude, I have also been fortunate enough to also be very gifted academically. My perfect report card and 99th percentile SAT score have made acceptance to any school within reach. I could not be in a better position moving forward than I am right now and that is because of my hard work, responsibility, and determination which make me an invaluable asset to any team I am on.
