2021 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Versatile. Passionate. High-achieving. Multi-faceted. As a highest-honors-student athlete with strengths in academics, athletics (multi-sport, All State) and the arts (multiple instruments, art, singing, theatre), I bring my personal best to all I do academically, athletically, and artistically. I have played year-round team sports since first-grade, club sports since second-grade and I look forward to playing sports in college.
I plan to major in Biology or Neuroscience, minor in the Arts, and possibly work in astrobiology/space science exploration.
In lacrosse, I bring positivity, hard work, high game IQ, adaptability (whatever the team needs!), a laser focus, leadership, versatility in defense/offense, coachability, and a persistent passion for learning and winning. Enthusiastically, I work daily to be my best in all arenas and look forward to achieving with my college coaches and teammates our highest goals.
