Personal Statement
Growing up in a house full of boys, I was exposed to sports at an early age. My brothers and my Dad all loved watching and playing sports, especially the game of basketball. A few of my brothers even played the game in middle school and High School. Little did I know it but my love for the game started there.
I'm the only girl in our household right now in a family of 8( I actually have 2 younger sisters in the Philippines that live with my mom). I was born in the Philippines and moved here at a young age with my brothers. I've always had to deal with tough love from my Dad and my brothers since moving here to the states but what that has done for me is that it has taught me to have thick skin when it comes to discipline and criticism. I've also learned to block out my outside emotions and transfer that energy to the basketball court. I am an ultimate competitor that never gives up and as a point guard, I lead through my actions on the court. To be able to play the game I love so much and further my education would be a blessing.
