Personal Statement
My goal is to obtain my engineering degree while playing the sport I love, which is soccer. I would love to be given the opportunity to make a difference on and off the field as a collegiate athlete. The biggest difference I feel I can bring to the table is my ability to adapt to change which has translated both on and off the soccer field for me. As a military dependent who has moved 9 times in my life I have been forced to start over each time with making friends, proving my soccer abilities, and learning new routines. As a new player / student I often have to work twice as hard as the established players / students because I need to prove myself to the coaches / teachers in order to be noticed. I take pride in that when my hard work pays off. My coaches have always loved my work ethics and how I push others to strive for better within themselves. I ultimately want to make a difference and hope to be a part of a program that will allow me to show my strengths while enjoying a game I have always loved.
