Personal Statement

Football is more than just a sport for me. It is my passion and as such, I am devoted to pouring in all that I have within me. I have played since age 5 where I was key in winning back to back national titles for my 12U and 13U teams prior to high school. Currently, my commitment to the game has led me to play varsity at Campbell Hall School in Studio City, California where I am Captain in my junior year. Under the direction of UCLA alum, Coach Dennis Keyes, I have found success as both a linebacker and running back. I exhibit leadership skills both on and off the field. As linebacker, I love guiding the defense to stop the other team. These characteristics allow me to be a prominent voice in my school’s student council as well. I am a three sport athlete, playing varsity basketball and track in addition to my primary sport of football. I also enjoy singing in my school’s gospel choir and being the college ambassador for visiting universities. I am extremely strong and hardworking beyond expected limitations. I am always looking to improve and embrace a growth mindset. I am a sure bet and any coach willing to add me to their roster will not be disappointed. Being the oldest of three, I have vowed to always be a role model for my siblings and others. I always strive to be someone whom my family can be proud. I am far from perfect but each day I try to be better than the day before.
