Ever since I was a little girl, I have wanted a career in the medical field. It wasn't until 6th grade that I discovered basketball and fell in love with it. Basketball is not only something that I love doing, it helped my heart and body get healthier. I strive to be a model student in high school because athletes represent their school when they travel to compete. I make good grades and push myself to have all A's. A lot of the girls on my team turn to me for help because they know I'm open to help them have good grades and remain eligible to stay on the team. I like working hard and I am able to learn fast and take constructive criticism well. I was once told that if your coach stops yelling, then you should be worried because that means that he/ she has given up on you. I am ready to do whatever it takes to be a student athlete in college.
