Personal Statement

    My parents have been my biggest influence in life. I remember I was five years old and my dad drove me down to the field to play on the local flag football team. That experience created the love I have for football and ever since I have played every year of football including private teams. My teammates, having fun and learning from the coaches are the reasons why I am passionate about football. I want to play on a college team that brings out my passion for football through team work and a dedicated coaching staff. I like working on a car engine and I am looking for a college that has an automotive program specifically mechanical technology. Even though I struggled academically in ninth and tenth grade, I have tremendously improved my GPA and I am confident I will do well in college.  

    When I was six years old, I started traveling with my parents to different parts of the world mostly Kenya. When I was in Kenya, I saw extreme poverty and a lot of street kids. I started volunteering with my uncles in orphanages and bringing clothes to Kenya. This experience helped me see life differently in other countries and help me become more caring, helping others, and humble in life. On top of my football abilities, I can bring these qualities into a team so we can become a stronger team.
