Being around the pool and with my teammates is what I considered to be my second home. I've been swimming for 3 years and as time passes I continue to grow more competitive and set new goals that I strive to achieve. Currently, my main goal is to swim at the college level. I'm extremely competitive and make it a habit to ask myself what I can improve on or how can i become a better athlete. I considered myself to be a leader figure on my team and always encourage my friends to set their minds on something that they love, while also providing an example for who they might hope to be. Swimming has helped shaped me into who i am and has greatly impacted my life; I continue to grow more in love with swimming every day passes and hope to keep accomplishing goals and achievements in swimming.
