Jinwon Bailar at ...Personal Statement
COMMITTED to Colgate University
I love adventure, racing and figuring things out. I am probably one of the few (if not the only) person to simultaneously be the Utah Swimmer of -the Year and the Utah Downhill biking Rookie Champion.
My family moved to Park City, Utah because it is one of the few places where I could continue to swim competitively while also pursuing my love of extreme biking and attend a nationally ranked high school.
I love the outdoors, the mountains and fixing things. I am respected by my peers and teachers (having won both athlete of the week and the year multiple times). I love team sports and play JV Lacrosse in the spring as stress relief.
I want to explore a pre-med curriculum, but I am also interested in engineering and law.
I hope to compete at the NCAA Championships level in college swimming and make Olympic Trials.
