Personal Statement
My path to become an elite goalie has not been a straight line upwards. Whether it is hockey or school, life has ups and downs. The older I get, the more I realize how true that is. The disappointments are frustrating, but they have taught me to keep working hard and stay focused on my longer term goals. Nothing changes for the better without hard work. Learning to be patient and work through the lows has made me a stronger person in every part of my life.
I have been very fortunate to play for amazing programs and world class coaches. Through them I have learned the importance of sacrifice and hard work. My teammates have taught me the importance of leadership and respect. My time mentoring 8U goalies has taught me to never lose the fun and love of the game. My family has taught me the value of a solid education. I am looking for a program that will be a good fit for me athletically as well as academically. I truly believe that I have what it takes to be a leader on your team and can make a positive impact on your program.
