Personal Statement
Hello! My name is Chasey Mercado and I'm currently finishing my Sophomore year at Greater Latrobe High School in Pennsylvania. I consider myself to be a well-rounded student athlete and look for opportunities to continue playing volleyball in college. My career goal is to be an Agent for the FBI, so my college program goals include a Political Science/Pre-Law major with a minor in Foreign Languages. My mother is ex-Army and I appreciate the reward she speaks about regarding her service to our country - I guess you could say I'm somewhat following in her footsteps.
I was primarily raised by my mom as a single parent and definitely get my determination and dedication to anything I commit to from her. She has also taught me about inclusiveness and the value of embracing diversity. I take pride in the fact that I'm well-liked in school and looked to as a leader or advocate of choice by my peers. My soon-to-be step father, Brian, has been a part of our lives for 8 years now and through him I understand more about enjoying life and planning for the future. I'm very lucky to have such supportive parents in my life and look forward to what I can accomplish in college.
I would appreciate any opportunity to study and play volleyball at a school which has a program that meets my needs. Thank you for any consideration on my behalf.
Kind regards,
Chasey
