My collegiate goals center on contributing meaningfully to your wrestling program's success while excelling academically in Business Studies or Biocemistry. I want to become a dentist or oral surgeon. I aspire to be a consistent and dedicated member of your team, pushing myself and my teammates to reach our full potential on the mat and in the classroom.

What makes me a good candidate? I bring a relentless work ethic, a deep passion for wrestling, and a proven ability to learn and adapt.

It has taught me the importance of sportsmanship, respect for my opponents, and the value of hard work in achieving goals.

Furthermore, my experience in wrestling has significantly shaped me as both a student and a leader. The discipline required to succeed on the mat translates directly to my academic pursuits, fostering strong time-management skills and a focused approach to learning.
