Personal Statement
I came to this Country when I was 5 not speaking any English. When I first came I did not have a place to live and it was hard to adjust to a completely new world with a language that I did not know. Since I came here I have consistently given 110% to both academics and athletics. I learned from a young age how to work hard. Track has always been something I loved and put my all into. I would be a good candidate for your team because I am an extremely hard worker, am always open to criticism, and will never give you less then my best. Although I do not have a coach who specializes in my event, my times have continued to increase every year. Nothing in the world would make me happier then to be the first person in my family to go to college and I am willing to do anything in order to do so.
