What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I have developed leadership and teamwork skills throughout my many years playing organized basketball for various teams. Since 4th grade I have played organized basketball for my school team (Indian Community School) and various AAU and feeder Teams including Waukesha Focus, TNBA, Day 1, Junior Popes, Jr Hilltoppers, and Chapman South. I’ve also committed volunteer hours at my school.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Yes, during my 7th grade season while playing for both my school team and the Jr. Popes, I dealt with the passing of my Uncle Dale who was a significant member of my family and a huge part of my family life. In this time I was able to understand basketball beyond the sport. I was also able to grow an appreciation of the positive outlet basketball allows me.
