Personal Statement
My name is Jessica Brennis. I am 18 years old and I have been playing volleyball since I was 8. I have a tremendous love for the sport and I would love to continue playing in college. I currently play for Seattle Juniors, U18 and for Varsity at Snohomish High School. I am a 5'10" outside hitter and I also play great at right side. I love to play all around. I have also been told that I have great setting hands.
I currently have a 3.75 GPA and work very hard to maintain good grades. I am currently involved in YoungLife and student leadership which I really enjoy. I have taken AP classes for the last 2 years and I am a year ahead in math and science. I hope to attend a school that offers a variety of majors. I am leaning towards fields in math or science. I am also interested in environmental sciences.
