Who I Am

   I have had several experiences in my life that I hold valuable to my heart. These experiences are my memories and my passions that I will always carry with me in life. I have been gifted with several talents, and I thank God for everything he has offered to me. I was blessed to have an ear for music, learning to play the piano at the age of four and enriching my musical talent till today.

   At the young age of 10, I also had the passion to run. It may not sound desirable to many, but I love the competition I face out on the field. Not only do I compete against many talented runners, but I make friends every competition I participated in. I have continued to carry out my talent in track and field and have made it to high levels of competition in high school. I have worked extremely hard and practiced countless hours to achieve my dreams as a high school runner. My plan was to make it to the state level of competition.  I did not reach my ultimate goal in my high school track career, unfortunately, but I felt really proud with my achievements and my success. Now I am here as a Decathlete runner for the CSUN track team, and I am ready to represent the Matador Pride!



Track isn't everything. I was gifted with a brain, just like you. We all should be thankful for where we are today! Learning from our past and working hard through our present goals, we can make the future a place we have always dreamed. Look at your talents, your gifts, and your life and thank God for every new day you live.
