Ever since I started playing hockey about 8 years ago, it has been my passion and obsession. Hockey has helped me grow academically, socially, and athletically. Because of hockey, I developed my ability to be a leader, my competitiveness, and my motivation to be the best at everything I do. I believe that one of my biggest strengths is my ability to balance school and hockey, as, throughout my high school career, I have kept a high GPA as well as winning the Illinois state championship this past season.
I would love to go to a college that gives me the opportunity to succeed athletically as well as academically. I want to play in college in order to develop my skills as a hockey player, to have the structure of a good program, and most of all, to be part of a team I love.
