Personal Statement

I am a student-athlete who enjoys the competition in the classroom and on the court. My drive to succeed was ignited early when I had to work to overcome delays in speech, language, and motor skills.  I take honors and AP classes and my favorite subjects are Mandarin and History. I have a passion for basketball that started in the third grade. Ready and prepared is a motto instilled in me by one of my coaches which is why you will often find me in my driveway shooting, dribbling, and rebounding. I am a team-first player with a high basketball IQ. My strengths on the court are shooting, scoring at all three levels, transitioning quickly, moving with and without the ball, and playing tough on-ball defense. I understand that basketball is a sport that requires daily work, and I am focused on and committed to continuously improving my game.
