200FL FUTURES CUT! Personal Statement
Class of 2027 – Thriving at 7,000 Feet and Ready to Dominate!
At 7,000 feet, every breath counts. Every stroke matters. And every moment in the water builds the endurance, resilience, and drive that define me.
Swimming has been my world since I was six, when I swam my first full lap to escape the baby pool (because, let’s be honest, it was time). By ten, after my first travel meet, I was hooked. Since then, I’ve mastered discipline, self-motivation, and perseverance—not just in the water, but in everything I do.
Academically, I strive for excellence, working diligently to achieve the grades necessary for my future athletic and professional career. Beyond high school, I’m pursuing a career in biology or anatomy to make a lasting impact in the medical field.

Training at 7,000 feet has built my endurance, sharpened my mental toughness, and prepared me for grueling races. Watching Olympians train at our pool has reinforced my technical focus and fueled my pursuit of excellence. Additionally, I frequently train at the Phoenix Swim Club while visiting my grandparents, taking advantage of the opportunity to work on diverse training styles and specific distance sets that expand my range and adaptability. I thrive on feedback, constantly refining my technique and race strategy to maximize performance.
I’m also growing as a leader in the sport. After attending Arizona Swim Camp at NAU since 2019, I’m now heading into my second year of coaching, sharing my knowledge and passion with younger swimmers.
From the grind to the competition, I thrive on the pursuit of excellence. Now, I’m ready to bring that drive to the collegiate level. Let’s GO!
