I am in search of a college that can offer both academic and athletic challenges. My goal is to acquire a strong occupational / physical therapy / exercise physiology program that will create a vigorous academic base which allows for advancement to graduate school. At the same time, I am pursuing a swim program in which I can grow with and advance athletically. I am a determined, focused swimmer that is ambitious to strive to perform to the best of my ability. I firmly believe that performing in school and in the pool requires both positive attitudes and persistence.I am enrolled in Lenoir- Rhyne University High School Scholar Program for both my junior and senior year in high school. I have been exposed and competed in all events,short and long course, distance and sprints. I feel that I am a very well rounded individual academically and athletically.
