College Admittance Essay
Passion and perseverance for expression of creativity and imagination has led me to UW Stout’s program for Game Design and Development.

In order to successfully realize my aspirations, I will need to draw upon several key talents that I have been consistently refining. These include expression of imagination, teamwork, and leadership skills.

I have participated in many clubs and organizations in school and in my community. I have served as a Boy Scout, student council member, and Student government.

I have served my community by volunteering at the Safe Harbor Humane Society. Breast Cancer has had an enormous impact on my family, which led me to become an active participant for the American Cancer Society and the Susan G. Coleman Foundation. Our local bowling alley holds and annual event, “Bowl for the Cure”, were I have actively helped plan and organize the event.

I have enjoyed myself immensely belonging to these clubs and organizations. Each has positively contributed to my growth as a person, and has allowed me the opportunity to make many new friends.

Through my many work experiences I have had an opportunity to expand my teamwork and communication skills. In the past I worked as dishwasher at my local restaurant where I learned to work as a team to get things done more productively. Currently I am employed at Calvin Klein in the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets where I am sales associate where I get a large amount of communication skills with customers.

In conclusion my leadership, teamwork, communication skills, and imagination will help enrich the UW Stout

    I am a graduate from Glen Oaks Community College and I would love to continue my education with Glen Oaks and their Nursing Program. I am a very athletic person, therefore in my free time my activities include running, playing sports, coaching and being involved with my family. Working two jobs, one being a Nursing Assistant and Unit Technician at The Community Health Center of Branch County and the other doing in home care for an elderly patient, does make it difficult to find free time. With what little free time I do have I enjoy spending it with my family as they are very important to me. I try to make it a routine to visit with my grandmas to have lunch with them and to drive them around where ever is needed due to the fact that they both cannot drive. I am currently training to run a marathon in May. During softball season, I volunteer with the coaching staff at the Coldwater High School. My greatest satisfaction so far in life, is the fact that I am one of few to have graduated from a college with a degree within my family.
