In college, I would like to continue to pursue my love for pole vaulting. I feel that I have so much more to give to this sport following my high school career. I want to experience the sports team aspect of college. I am an encouraging teammate to all, I have great sportsmanship and I also love meeting athletes from other teams and bonding over our shared love for our sport. I am very hard working and am capable of being a role model of good work ethic. I preform well under pressure and am able to keep a calm demeanor in stressful situations. Optimism has always been very important to me and I always try to share the power of being optimistic with my team. I like to think I'm pretty level headed and good-natured even when things might not go as planned at a meet or go in my favor. No matter what happens, I am a team player and love to cheer on my teammates. My drive doesn't stop at athletics, I have always been very devoted to my schoolwork. I understand that my studies must come before sports, and I am good at time management.
