Personal Statement

I would be blessed and honored for the opportunity to attend an elite college program and elite academia to get a higher education. Currently, I am in the transfer portal as a graduate of Oklahoma Baptist. I had a successful 2 years there, accomplishing my goals of earning a bachelor's degree in 2 years and of improving each year on the court as a leader.  I am looking to join an elite program that is going to push me and allows me to excel while studying hard to earn a master's degree! With 3 years of eligibility left, I am excited for what God has in store for me.
