Personal Statement
I simply want to help others in the future. Since I was young; I have always love helping people. Growing up in a hard situation, I saw it as essential to put my best effort into anything I commited to. My Family never had a high financial status but we managed. One day my grandfather introduced me to the concept of sports. He saw that I caught on to things pretty easily and saw I was active. At the age of 8, my grandfather showed me football. At first I was afraid of the contact, but as time progressed I became fond of the sport. From there I tried other sports. The ones that stood out to me other than football, was basketball and track. I also put a lot of effort into school. At a young age i caught on to all my classes pretty easy and always wanted a challenge academically. Math(s) and Science(s) provided that challenge. I eventually decided at 10, to use my gifts and give back as a philanthropist. This way I can have an athletic career I love and help others. Being able to compete on a collegiate level will be an amazing opportunity and get me closer to achieving my goal(s).
