I had never been passionate about anything until I began playing water polo, and when I began my journey, I knew I wanted to play at the collegiate level. Although I started playing later than most athletes, it has created a drive in me to do my best in all respects so that I can reach the level I aspire to be at. I will always have area for improvement, but I strive to get better everyday. I am diligent in and out of the pool, and I have maintained straight A’s throughout school, keeping myself strictly disciplined. I want a school that challenges me academically, as well as athletically. Water polo is what I love to do, and I am willing to push myself to develop my skills and play at the next level.
