I have been swimming competitively for almost twelve years, and throughout that time my mom and I became extremely close. She was undeniably one of my biggest supporters, especially in my swimming life and passion in becoming a doctor. My mom recently passed, but it would be my greatest honor to continue our dream of me being a first generation college student, swimming collegiately and further exploring my passion for medicine. I want to place in NCAA's and eventually continue on to medical school, and I am looking to find a team that is more so a family- teammates who always push and support one another. I love a challenge, so I have taken nothing but honors and AP classes, and have been at the tops of those classes with a 4.7 GPA. Athletically and academically I can guarantee I will always give 100%, and I will always be there to encourage my peers. I have faced many hardships throughout my lifetime, but life is what you make it, and I will always intend to live mine to its fullest potential.
