Personal Statement
Hi, welcome to my profile! My name is Chevelle Mills and I am a right side hitter. This is the sport that makes my heart race and makes me feel whole. I am very excited for college and look forward to playing volleyball and fulfilling my dreams. I hope to also be a good role model for the younger girls to look up to. When I was younger I would watch college volleyball in the stands and loved the atmosphere there! I want be a part of that atmosphere that I felt when I was younger!
I have played in about every sport there is. In elementary school I played basketball for two years and received the MVP of the team award each year. I was in wrestling for two years and played soccer for a year. I was on and off with track but this past year I lettered in throwing events. I have played softball and volleyball since I was in elementary.
I lost my dad before the age of eight so sports played a big role in my healing process. Sports helped me stay positive throughout the challenges. Volleyball has been my #1 love through it all. Since highschool, volleyball has gotten harder and more competitive, but that's the fun thing about it. It's the CHALLENGE! Throughout these years I have pushed myself as hard as I can to be able to make a difference for myself and my team. I have pushed myself academically as well and I think that makes me different from all these other athletes. What makes me unique from all the other players is how hard I work for my dreams! If my grades drop, I am right on it! If I miss a serve, I will spend all day making it right! If my legs hurt from practice, I will lift until I'm used to the pain! I think that is what makes me different from all the other players you will encounter.
Throughout these years I will keep pushing so I can make my parents, family, friends and teammates proud! I want to push myself to make sure I get to go to a great medical school so I can help people that I care about!
Make my dreams come true! And thank you for reading my long personal statement! I hope you all have a great day, and keep me in mind for who you want on your team!
