Personal Statement

I have absolutely loved the sport of swimming since I was eight years old, and have had further appreciation in each additional year I have participated.  Improvement has always been my goal, and I finally received the opportunity when I moved to Las Vegas in the summer of 2016 and joined my current club team.  My development as a swimmer rapidly progressed with superb coaching and a greater training load, and my dream of swimming in college became achievable!  With my continued dedication, I am seeking a college program with an environment for continuous improvement both in the pool and the classroom.
