I am from small town named Decatur, IL. Decatur is a small but big town there is enough people that you will know almost everyone but not everyone. There is not a lot to do but go to party/get in trouble, play sports or work. Although my time growing up there I have always been good at sports and it showed in my time in Grade school through High school. I went to a high school named St. Teresa High School a school known for its sports and schooling. This past school year we won the 2a state championship for football.
This is a picture of me at the state game making big play to change the game.

In my time at Siue I will play baseball and study arts and sciences. My goals for after college is to play baseball in the majors and also become and physical trainer. If things goes as planned I would love to play baseball as long as possible but if not then I would love to just be around the game by being a personal and physical trainer. I know that the major that I want takes most people six to eight year to complete but I want to complete it in five year max.
In my free time I am like most other kids I love to hang with my friends and do fun things. Although I am different in some ways because I like putting my body through painful states of working out . I love to workout and test my breaking limits.
One obstacle I have to get over right now in life is to leave my family at home and not want to go back home every week but other then that life has been everything I have asked for.
