When I look back at my journey, Things could have turned out much different for me. I played sports from the age of four but never really blossomed in anything until my senior year in high-school. I used to feel like I would never be good enough to be respected. I’ve always just wanted to help people, and do my best in sports but nothing ever seemed to workout for me. I started high jumping at 15 years old, and a the time I could only jump 4’8. My senior season (HS) in the high jump changed the trajectory of my life. I jumped 7’0 and got better throughout college and can now clear 7’4.25. I am here before you all today, because I never gave up on myself, even when everyone else did. So I say to you, Don’t ever give up on your dreams. #highjump #jumpers #trackandfield #tracknfield #nevergiveup #believeinyourself #motivation
