I wish to further my swimming in college. Swimming has been such a huge part in my life and it has taught me so much more than just being a good athlete. It has taught me how to work hard, reach for my goals, and overcome failure in any part of my life. I have many goals and aspirations that I am determined and excited to reach. I always work my hardest in every practice, class and activity. My love for life and passion to succeed fuel my swimming and schoolwork every day. I try and be the most positive example for my teammates and friends in all circumstances, trying to never let my hardships deter my work ethic and drive.
