Personal Statement

When people ask me what I want to be when I grow up, I usually tell them that I haven't decided yet, but there are two things in my future that I know with certainty. First, I want to make a difference with my life. Second, I want to play college volleyball.

I fell in love with the game in seventh grade, even though I was usually the last player to get in during a match. Since then, my skills have escalated with my passion for the game.

Volleyball has given me confidence, courage, and, most importantly, joy. It is truly my wish to continue playing volleyball through college and take what it teaches me into my life off the court.
