Personal Statement
I was raised that the fundamentals of growing up include aspiring to always do your best and working hard to get where you want to be. Both of my parents being in the military has influenced my life a tremendous amount. Leaving friends was hard, due to frequent moves, but finding a soccer team fit for me was even harder, especially when I found my first club team. Starting out later than most, I was not as good as the other girls. My parents and coaches, however, saw my full potential and pushed me to work harder everyday. Eventually, everything payed off, and I can only thank my parents and my coaches for that. Soccer reiterates that hard work and determination will help you become more successful in life.
Growing up, like most kids, I had a strong affection for all animals. That fondness has now evolved into a goal to pursue a career in Veterinary Medicine. I aspire to open my own animal clinic and become a successful Veterinarian. Soccer will have again been a reminder that with hard work, you can do anything you put your mind to.
