Personal Statement
When I think about playing sports, I think about my parents. Both of them love competing and that rubbed off on me. No matter what we did as a family it was a competition. This makes a big impact on the way I play volleyball. Since 6th grade, I have prepared for volleyball to play well then do my best.
At school, I like classes where I get to solve problems and enjoying my science classes. I am still trying decide on what I want to study in college. Outside the classroom I help with local food drives at my church and volunteer with the kids program there.
Something different about me than most of my friends: I lived in the Philippines with my family when I was in 2nd and 3rd grade. We traveled to several countries in Asia and I learned about different cultures which was very interesting to me.
