Personal Statement

As of the the Fall of 2024, I am a 16-year-old Junior at Brighton High School in Michigan.

I want to play fastpitch softball in college, because I love the competition, I am a team player and I thrive on the field during games.

In college, I would like to study and become either a sports medicine professional or an educator working with younger children.

Thank you for considering my profile.
