Summary

With the start of High School I dedicated myself to my studies and flipped a switch to focus on being successful in my education. Although with Covid-19 coming so suddenly, I found my grades slipping to a very unacceptable point. They fell to a point to where the next classes I was scheduled were far easier than I should have been taking. This was my Sophomore year, the summer after my Sophomore year I found myself flip that same switch I did in the beginning of high school. This flip found me getting two jobs in the same summer while working on schooling during my summer to try and catch up to where I should have been. My Junior and Senior year I got involved with Football and Track again while also finding much success in the classroom. I was taking multiple math classes at the same time as well as very difficult Science courses including AP Physics. This brings me to College where I am finding what I love and am strongly dedicated to further my education.

I participate in Intramural Volleyball, Football, Spikeball, Pickleball, and sometimes Ultimate Frisbee. I like to stay active during these long school days for my own health. In my opinion there is no better medicine and stress reliever than being active outside.
