Personal Statement

In college, I hope to achieve a dual major in liberal arts and in either civil engineering or interior design. I am currently in the plumbing program at Blackstone Valley Tech, which would give me an advantage going into the civil engineering field. Interior design is also something that has always interested me, and I feel like I could also be successful in that field of work. I achieve mostly A's in school, with the exception of one B, usually in math as I take rather advanced courses in that subject (honors pre-calculus). I take two other honors classes, and AP English, all of which I am currently doing well in. In addition to doing well in school, I also am the captain of my school's varsity soccer team. This is my second year being captain, as I was also captain my sophomore year. I also participate in activities within my school. One such activity is a mentoring program my school has in place for incoming freshmen. The program is designed for juniors to help the freshmen get acquainted with the school and to feel welcomed. Lastly, I take part in Skills USA, which is a competition between tech schools based on skill and knowledge within each student's field of work. In addition to this, I have two little sister's at home, and because of them I am a very responsible person. I am also hardworking, and eager to be successful in everything I do. This motivation combined with my other talents and my sense of responsibility are what differentiate me from other student athletes.
