Career : My Sports Career

I could be considered a hidden figure because I am a multi-faceted individual. I have a passion for learning and recalling information. For example, I have been the team captain for my Black History Quiz Bowl team which competes for 6-8 hours, Jeopardy style against other schools. I initiate contact with my school advisers and study groups outside of school hours. Other academic talents include continuous A-Honor Roll, scoring 5/5 in every subject for the state End of Grade testing. I was selected as the highest academic achiever in the 4th grade, thereby receiving honors and recognition at the UNC and Duke Football game as “All Star Achiever.” My next hidden talent surfaced as I attended an amazing summer camp at Clemson University. I built

In a nutshell, many sports teams believe winning isn't everything, it's the only thing. Honestly, this is completely invalid. First, winning isn't a life or death situation. By losing, a team not only learns the concept of sportsmanship but also grows as a hole. After all, a famous person once said, "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger." Second, playing a sport is supposed to be enjoyable- having fun is more important than winning 24/7. Third and finally, accepting defeat builds character. Ghandi once said, "Be the change you wish to see in the

I had faced several setbacks along the way, but my junior year was here, time for me to show the world what I had been doing everyday for the last two years. I immediately impressed my coach and was placed on Varsity for the first time in my life. I was no longer the laughing stock of the team and was one of the best players. I helped lead my team to CIF and continued to put in hard work. Now as my senior season approaches I am ready for the challenge. I want to come back better than ever and am working harder than ever. I am going to help lead this team to a CIF

My sophomore year I did not expect to be playing varsity until the coach came

Before racing shells, coxswains, and 5:00 am rowing practices, it was always sports that represented a measure of success for me. From a young age I dreamed of joining the ranks of Division 1 collegiate athletes all over the country and knew my success would be the direct result of my commitment to training. Fast forward twenty years and the athletic career I have experienced has been nothing short of successful. Rowing demanded more from me than I had ever demanded of myself and taught me the power of perseverance. It instilled in me that my capabilities have no boundaries and laid the groundwork for my success in business. The sport of rowing is relentless in its power to expose the mental strength of athletes. Since the completion of my experience as a collegiate athlete, I have been driven by a passion to further my career as a professional in sport. With the achievement of obtaining a graduate degree, I know as I create new career goals, I will have the skills necessary to succeed in a new chapter of life.

Since starting college in 2014 I have changed my major three times. I started out knowing exactly what I wanted to do as a career. I never wanted to merely work or have a job, I’ve always been someone who wanted to enjoy what I do regardless of the challenges or level of difficulty. I started out as a Biology major hoping to go into medical school, everything was set and I enjoyed all the classes I was taking until my second semester when I started chemistry. Technically I did fine, but the class was heavily curved which discouraged me. I also wanted a way to incorporate a degree in Spanish with my medical degree but I was also always interested in political science. So, that next term, because I was so discouraged, I switched majoring in both Political Science and Spanish. I was extremely excited about that choice however I never took any courses in Political Science because that brings us to this current semester when I came to UTC switching again to Psychology.

The older I become, the more I learn about myself and the kind of person I aspire to be. I plan to be a person who can help others no matter what. Over the years, I started to work towards the common goal of getting better at everything I do. No matter how big or small the goal is I am proud of myself for attempting to achieve it. In order to achieve a great life, I need to push myself and work for what I want. The older I become the more I experience in my life and decide what I want to pursue as a career. After witnessing certain events in my life, I continue to push myself to work towards my goal of helping others and working hard for my goals.

When it comes to thinking about my future and the different careers I would like to be in, I have a very difficult time deciding. It’s not like picking a place to eat when I am hungry, it’s an important decision for me and my future.

When I sit back and think about where I have come from, and where I see myself in the next few years, I can’t help but look back and think about the progress I’ve already made. The changes I made in my life from the kid that came out of school unsure of what he wanted, then becoming a Psychology major in college, then changing my major to Fire Science to pursue a career as a fire fighter, later finding out that the market in my area was flooded with too many professional fire fighters. When I finally came to terms with making a life for myself, I joined the United States Army and became and Combat Medic (Emergency Medical Technician) with an additional specialty of Radiology Technologist (RT). The life style and career change I found for

I first stumbled onto pursuing a career in pharmacy in grade nine during my technology and communications class when we had to make career pamphlets. Pharmacy, NOC number 3131, was the first career I chose since I like science and wanted to go into that field (). Researching this career, many aspects of this job had similar values which persuade me in to pursing this career. I was always been fascinated by science throughout high school and later on pursued a specialization in organic chemistry at the University of Waterloo. The one thing that stood out when researching this job was that this career deals greatly with working with the public. My occupational research paper will be done investigating a career in pharmacy, where I can help get a better understanding of this career and allow me to choose which area of pharmacy I would like to focus on closely.

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when thinking about where I want my life to go after I graduate high school. One piece of advice that I have been given is this; “Passions come and go. If you want to be satisfied with your life and your career make sure you’re helping people.” These two simple sentences have driven me to pursue a higher degree that I know will be put to good use. Going into the medical field was an obvious answer. I’d actually always been very reluctant to enter health care because I was raised by two physical therapists and the idea of doing what my parents did never peaked my interest. However, upon receiving the previous advice and some guidance from my teachers, I decided that becoming a

I am curious. It’s that simple. I am eager to learn and experience from whomever, whatever and wherever possible, whether its learning the intricacies of energy metabolism or expanding my horsemanship knowledge, it makes my brain happy. I have developed strong business acumen, valuing existing relationships and always cultivating new connections. My goal is to make everyday some kind of awesome, the parts of it I love and the parts I don 't.

Since childhood we are asked as children by adults what we want to do as a career. As children we give answers like doctors or teachers. As years go by and high school graduation looms some of those teenagaers still have the same careers in minds as they did as kids. While for many teenagers there dream career has changed many times. During college many of these teenagers pick majors that suit their interests and they know what they want to do for the rest of their lives. Then there are people that pick a major because they are interested in the field, but do not really know what they want to do with their degree, I am definitely one of those people.

Since I was a little boy I have wanted to be a lawyer. I dreamed of walking into a courtroom dressed in a suit and tie and commanding the room with my closing argument before I even knew how to do long division. While other kids drew pictures of being astronauts, police officers, or superhero’s, my picture was always me as a lawyer.
