2022 SpotlightPersonal Statement
My vision to play golf does not stop in high school .
When God give me the ability and strength to grow and expand my interest then I will pursue it.
This game help shape my life not only being a good competitive golfer but as a person of belief.
I learned the value of dignity and perseverance . I learned how to embrace to be disciplined and
learn from my own mistakes . I learned the value of respect, teamwork and friendship and family values.
Above all, I learned how to accept the true feelings of my own self.
JannZuzzyse (Jann)
It all started when I was 2 years old
That I was daydreaming I will become the history maker in golf like what
Francis Ouimet at his movie " The Greatest Game Ever Played " , his true story.
" I will become what God has instilled on me
He has all the plans for me
I visualized it, I build it , now I am playing on it
above all I am praying and working hard for it '
