Personal Statement

Growing up, many sports were part of my life. Starting with soccer, basketball and baseball, I was on a field or a court almost every weekend. While participating in these organized team sports, I was also lucky to learn the game of golf at my home course, The Farms Country Club in Wallingford, CT. Upon entering high school, I decided to concentrate on golf and have been thrilled with my development over the past few years. Helping with the junior golf program at my club has also allowed me to continue learning and seeing golf from a different perspective. As a high honors student, I am dedicated to working hard in school and look forward to finding a college where I can excel in the classroom as well as on the golf course.
