I have a pro-growth mindset and push myself to accomplish my goals both academically and athletically. I am very coachable and a willing learner as I am driven to achieve the best result possible. I am also fearless and know that I can do hard things  My desire to develop on the 10 meter platform has influenced my intention to attend a Division 1 school. I believe this will provide the best opportunity to achieve this ultimate goal.

In addition to athletics, I am a self-driven student who thrives on being active with several interests. One of my unique interests is my passion for horology. I am a 4th generation horologist who can identify, repair, and restore many unique and complicated antique clocks.  I'll bet you haven't read that line before! My grandad, dad, uncle, and I are all antique clock collectors and I took to the hobby when I was only a toddler. After years in my uncle's basement and my grandad's garage, I finally mastered the skill enough to begin doing repairs on my dad's collection as well as my own. I repair clock movements for customers in my own clock shop in our garage. 

Again, thank you for your time. I would love the opportunity to learn more about your dive program and school.
