Jaime A. Brana-Gomez '26 Recruiting Profile

I am a sports person because I play all the sports I will tryout for everything in my school. Love being part of a team. I Consider myself good in most of them. I work hard and am constantly trying to improve. They pick me a lot of times for my height and my body type. 

Usually a play basketball for fun, tried soccer when I was younger until 5th grade and then swimming. It started with school; but later they were considering me for the Federation in PR, when the pandemic hit; it didn't went through. Like I said I'd always liked volleyball since the 2nd grade and when things started normalizing after the pandemic volleyball kicked in again!! I love the competitive side of the sport, the thrill of jumping and hitting the ball. Couldn't get enough, the truth is that the competitive spirit in me drives me.  Volleyball makes me feel free. I feel like myself. I will love to be great, the best player; everyday push my limits and improve. There's always space to improve. It is my passion. 

I hope in time, hopefully very soon because I'm in high school (Class 2026) that the sport can further my academic and athletic future.  Talking about my future and what I want to do with my life. Its very important to point out, that I value most my academic future. I am not sure yet exactly what I want to study but interested in programs like Business, management, Biology and Biomedical and Computer Sciences, the possibilities are endless...just like the learning process.
