2019 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I have a strong desire to go to college and be successful. I am not sure what career I want to choose at this time but I am looking into Psychiatry. I am just getting started with this process and I am very excited to see what is out there. I am looking for a school that will offer me a great education and also help take me to the next level with my golf game. Other sports I currently participate in are hockey and rodeo. I currently have a 4.0 grade point average. I am very active in my community through our church, 4-H and our local junior golf programs. I enjoy helping younger kids work towards their goals. In South Dakota we are only able to golf for about half the year. My dad is my biggest supporter and has really helped me to improve my golf game. I qualified for both All Conference and All State as a freshman and All Conference as a Sophmore. I feel like I have a lot of room for improvement and I am excited to continue to practice and improve my game. My goal is to be shooting in the 70s on a regular basis this year. Our program starts this spring for my Junior year and I am very excited to see what it brings. Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my profile.
