Over the years I have worked very hard in high school to achieve at the highest level. My wide variety of involvement in school, sports, and the community has made my me who I am. The time I have put in to be successful in all these areas as I received scholarship offers to play football in college, qualified for state in FBLA, and even danced on stage at Dancing with the O Club Stars have all made me who. Despite stressful nights I ultimately chose to follow the school I’ve always wanted to go to and give up sports which is The University of Wisconsin–Madison. Even though I have done well in all my sports as I will earn eight letters when I graduate, I take much more pride and commitment to my academics in class and in clubs. Throughout my span at the high school I have stayed organized and responsible earning over a 3.9 GPA in every semester. My rigor has also been very strong as I will graduate with high honors. Honor classes such as AP Psychology AP Statistics have greatly helped myself develop better habits studying and preparing for class. In school I have also dedicated myself in class to produce my best work, and to also involve myself in a variety of clubs. I have been a member of Spanish Club, Link Crew, FBLA, and O Club. The academic level I have achieved and clubs I have been part of have made me very appreciative of all the opportunities Onalaska High School has given me. Starting at a very young age along with my academics I picked up multiple sports playing football, basketball, golf, and baseball growing up.

Although I am not the best at some of them such as basketball, I look to enjoy my time there and realize that the end is near to come. I approach every day of practice with a positive attitude even after a long day when coach is mad at us. In football and other times one of my top attributes was represented everyday which is leadership. In football I felt I truly brought the team together as whole, but especially on the offensive side of the football. Knowing the position I play I knew I had to be the best leader I could for our team to be successful. We ultimately won the conference and the satisfaction I received was immaculate. Although in playoffs I broke my arm and couldn’t play the rest of the game it truly made me feel blessed that I got to play quarterback for this team and represent our school the way I did. Maintaining a balanced lifestyle was also key for me so along with school, and sports I felt the need to volunteer in the community a lot whether it is through sports, the legion, YMCA, or my church. Through sports I have volunteered at many baseball, football, and basketball camps for younger kids to help them develop and learn the game. Through the Legion I have volunteered for multiple fish fries and also volunteered during legion days. There are many great opportunities to volunteer through the YMCA as I have helped with multiple of their specialty runs and kids football events. Although I volunteer often what I feel most involved in is church. Through church and my journey to be confirmed sophomore year I have volunteered a lot. In the spring our church hosts fish fries which I often volunteered at along with helping setting up christmas lights and trees. Helping the community and being involved create
