Personal Statement
I started swimming when I was 5 years old, and I have loved every minute of it. I started swimming competitively in 4th grade and swam for that team until halfway through my 10th grade. Then I left and joined Poseidon Swimming. I left the other team because I wasn't able to move up to a better group where I would be able to improve and get my goal times that I have been dreaming for. Since joining Poseidon I am able to get those times and be my best self, and it wasn't until I started at Poseidon where I really learned that I wanted to swim for a college.
I am hardworking both in and out of the pool. I have maintained a high GPA throughout my high school years. I am even a Student Ambassador for my school. Also, I am a Math Peer Tutor where I have the chance to help my peers better understand what they are learning, and make it easier for them to understand and improve their math grades.
My ultimate goal in swimming is to improve my times. I want to become the best swimmer I can be, and I want to be on a team where I am able to do that.
