Heart of the Athlete

https://www.thewvc.org/
I've always been motivated to do my best. I will never give up on myself or my team mates. I am Christian in faith which is a huge part of my life and that helps me become an overall better person/athlete. I am very competitive, not just in sports. For instance, I was Midvale Sr. High School's Valedictorian of 2019 and plan on putting even more work into being the best I can be throughout my first year of college at the University of Idaho.

I am also extremely committed to anything I take part in. To give an example, in my four years of high school, I spent over a year of it on crutches due to both a busted navicular bone and a chainsaw wound. Despite these injuries, I was still a part of the varsity basketball team and went to every game. I still took part in my 4-H project and showed my project on crutches. My grades were not affected by these injuries either, if anything, they got better. I believe these examples show true dedication and commitment.

Lastly, I would like to express that an investment, of any sort, made in me will not be wasted and here is why. I genuinely believe that true work ethic and maximum effort simply have no downside. Furthermore, I have always loved the gratification of true hard work. I tend to be the guy who runs an extra lap at track practice because I like the pain and know I'll be a better athlete for it. During a basketball game, I'm the guy who dives for the ball even if that means sliding into the bleachers at full speed because I know that could be the difference between winning the game or not. Most importantly, I know there are people out there far less fortunate than I am. Many of these people are working, fighting just as hard or even harder than I am to make the best out of their lives and I see absolutely no reason to give less than one-hundred and ten percent. In turn, I may be able to help lift those less fortunate up.

This roughly sums up who I am as an person/athlete. If you have any interest in me, please don't hesitate to email me or give me a call. Thank you and God Bless
