2021 Spotlight
2021 Spotlight #2Personal Statement
I am interested in business and entrepreneurship and have been successful at running my own private baseball training company for 3 years. I want to expand my horizons in college and delve into areas of study that may spark interests that are not yet known to me. My goal is to play NCAA baseball in college, and to build a family and brotherhood with my future teammates. I am a cerebral player that provides a coaches perspective from the field of play. I am a quiet leader who always looks to uplift my teammates, as I feel actions speak louder than words. I never hesitate to assist them in learning new techniques to improve their game, or to help them off the field in their studies and personal lives. I am a strong culture and character guy. I believe that attitude and effort are two things that we can fully control in life, and I will always strive to represent positivity and a sense of unwavering grit in all that I do.
