Personal Statement
When I was four years old, I knew I loved the water and sitting at the pool waiting for my sister to get done with swim practice was getting old. So, I marched right up to the coach asked to be put on the swim team. Since then, swimming has provided me with an outlet both physically and mentally. It is where I’ve met my closest friends. But it’s also where I’ve learned to work hard, pay attention to detail, and put my all into what I’m passionate about. And it’s where I’ve learned to pick myself back up and keep going- all things that will stay with me through school, personal relationships, and life. I put my all into what I love and am ready to embrace the challenges and opportunities that both swimming and life will throw at me in the years to come.
