Summary
I believe that I am a hard working, highly motivated, well rounded individual. The scholarship I received for Idaho State University has certainly proven my work ethic, but I believe that personal relations and good communication are at the base of a healthy working environment. As such my leadership roles clarified the structure behind team settings both in sports and in the real world. I feel as if I can be a great asset for any recruiters. I have a very stable family environment that supports me and guides me to become a healthy and happy man.
