• H.P. Baldwin High School

• Grade: 12 / GPA: 3.8

• Sports: Cross Country, Track & Field

• Future Plans: I'm enlisted in the U.S. Army as a 68 Whiskey, Combat Medic for 4 years. I'll be stationed in Germany! I'm always open minded about continuing with sports, but I think I'll focus on going through combat medic training. After traveling and completing my years, I plan to transition to a job in the medical field.

Sports Lessons: The thing I enjoy most is learning how to push past my limits. In my mind, if I can keep pushing through when it's hard in sports, I can do the same in my life.

Laziness and lack of commitment will not help you improve. Consistency and dedication are the two most important things you need to be a great athlete. When you are driven by passion and love, you become unstoppable.
