Summary

As a soon to be college graduate and college athlete, my time as a university student has enabled me to challenge myself, fine-tune my leadership skills, and develop a true sense of what dedication and accountability looks like.
Angelo State Softball coupled with being a full-time student has largely dominated my time over the course of the three years that I have been a student. This has allowed me to gain experience in teamwork, time-management, communication, and constructive criticism, with teachers, teammates, and coaches.
