Colby Reyes '13 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement
My dream is to go through a top college to become a mechanical engineer and use that knowledge and skill not only to design great products to improve everyday life or push the cutting edge of technology, but also to make a difference in less privileged places by using the gifts I have been given to serve and aid others. I love training as a competitive swimmer because it constantly forces me to think of how I can improve, looking for new knowledge and how to apply it -- a ciritcal skill for life and engineering. Also, it keeps me in shape and provides the mental and physical stamina to be prepared for whatever God may have planned for my life, whether it be working as a missionary and humanitarian engineer half-way around the world or working as an engineer at home, having a family, and staying involved with my local Master's Swimming team. If i were able to swim in college, I would not only be able to continue building upon all this, but also to take my competition to the next level and get to enjoy the full experience of college athletics.
