Personal Statement
Growing up I’ve believed that with hard work and God’s work anything can happen. Day in and day out I am always working on bettering myself whether it’s academically or working on my craft. Even since the age of 7 growing up in Sweden I’ve been in love with the sport of Soccer. I was addicted and dedicated from the very beginning. I remember coming home from school and walking out to the backyard and training with my brother and my father. To this day I do the same routine with them. Soccer is definitively my form of happiness. Every second a ball is on my feet, my cleats and gloves are on, the stress turns off. Words can not describe what I feel when I am playing. As a goalkeeper I am very understanding of my role on the field. Whether it’s playing a solid pass to my teammates feet or making a save I always get the job done. Academically I am the same way. I understand my job and get it done. I am as dedicated in my school work as much as I am in my athletics. My goal in life is to go to a college where I am happy and can succeed athletically and academically.
