There's nothing stronger than a dream. Dreams are similar to goals in that you have to work hard to see them come true. Goals are the foundation of a successful life and remind me to keep focused, motivate me to excel, and allow me to maintain a good life balance For this reason, I strive to set strong short-term, mid-term and long-term goals for my life. What follows is some background, my goals and the steps I have taken or will take to achieve them. .

I have won multiple athletic awards in football, basketball, and baseball. I have been captain, MVP and received All-State, All-Conference, and All-County honors in all three sports. .
