Personal Statement
Being awarded a full tuition university level education would be the culmination of a lot of hardworking and dedication for not only myself but for my parents, it would be a load lifted off of their shoulders because now we can reap the benefits of Gods harvest. I hope to obtain a degree in the field of sports medicine while fulfilling a collegiate level basketball career. One attribute that I possess that I think is unique is that I have a teachable, humble spirit and I am always willing to learn from coaches, teammates or any staff that can better develop my game. My dedication and drive I think is what sets me a part from other players, because for me I was taught that "defence creates offence" so I am willing to lock down a defender or knock down some key points, while creating plays for my teammates and being what the coach needs at a particular point in a game. In getting such an opportunity to fulfil my basketball dreams I hope obtain my degree and it be useful in the future when I am able to contribute to society, especially the women who in The Bahamas don't have equal opportunities as the males in our country. To me this is the next step on the path that God wants to take me and I just want to be an example of his glory and the many blessings, gifts and talents he has bestowed upon me, God bless.
