2014 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I feel I would be a great candidate for your soccer team because I am a tenacious and skilled player. I have experience as a center defender and as a defensive midfielder. No matter what position I play I communicate well with my teammates and lead by example. I am a physical player that is strong in the air. A team player, hard worker, with good vision of the field. I am a black belt in Kuk Sool (Korean form of martial arts). My black belt training gives me the advantage of handling situations with calm, clear vision and the fitness to play full games with out fatigue.
I am currently taking AP Psychology and have discovered a passion for the subject matter. I plan on continuing my education to include a Ph.D.
This past summer I spent three weeks in Ghana, Africa volunteering at a Primary School and an Orphanage in a very poor area. This experience has provided me with great appreciation for all that I have and inspired me to always give back to those less fortunate.
