Personal Statement
I have two passions in life: basketball and owning my own business. I first asked my dad to help me start a business when I was 9 years old. I plan on studying Business and eventually getting my MBA. I understand that success requires hard work and preparation and I am willing to do whatever it takes to be the best that I can be. I am at the gym working out at 4 am in the summers and I review tape of every game I play, especially when I don’t play up to my expectations.
I started out playing post and transitioned to shooting guard the last two years, although I am often at the post on defense. This has made me into a versatile player that can effectively work around the rim or step outside and shoot the jumper.
I volunteer at my church’s basketball league working the score board, refereeing, and coaching. I love being able to teach little kids how to play basketball and seeing how the sport can shape them as a person.
