2016 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Information about me
Although I am shy when I first meet new people, I quickly open up. Creating a friendly environment for swimmers is something I strive to provide. I love getting a good workout in because going fast is always a joy to me. Although I'm not the best at it, I encourage those around me whenever possible.
Swimming Activities
I devote myself to swimming. The three things above swimming is God, family, and my education. As of this year, I drive 40-60 minutes (depending on traffic) to get to practice. My previous team disbanded due to internal conflicts and a few friends and I decided to move to the Woodlands Swim Team.
Extra Activities
Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays - I wake up early and do dryland exercising. (running, push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, abs, etc.)
Tuesdays and Thursdays - Morning practice
Saturday - I go to the gym after practice.
