Sports and leadership taught me a few life lessons over the years and developed
me into the person that I am today. It taught me to work hard to accomplish my
goals and dreams. Sports taught me professionalism as to be on time and to
respect others. My sport made me very competitive, especially against myself to
never be satisfied with things you’ve done that you know were not performed to
the best of your ability.
Hobbies:
Fishing
Bow Hunting
9. Curriculum Vitae
Farming
Sports
Fishing and bow hunting both provides me with challenge and that is wat I’m
looking for in life. The ability to do something that takes me out of my comfort
zone and tests my ability to do something. Farming and sports both make me
relaxed. Farming lets me enjoy the little things in life while sports let me think of
my younger time which gives me good memories.
