I feel that I have always been an effective leader. I am always there to pick players up. I feel that I have been able to maintain composure during tough times. My actions allows those around me to feel comfortable and relaxed. The one thing I learned about baseball is that there are more failures that successes. To be a good player I have learned that it is how you handle the failures and appreciate the successes.

I have taken these experiences and been able to apply them to the younger kids. I have experienced their challenges a short time ago and I think because I am not that much older than them they relate to me in a positive way.

The one thing that I have learned working out with some of the older baseball players at Diamond Dreams Baseball Academy is that you have to be very discipline in order to succeed in baseball. I have learned to find the balance between working out and doing my class work. The most important lesson they preach to me everyday is that someone else is working out and working hard; what are you doing? I try to take that same approach with my school work.

Work at Diamond Dreams baseball Academy and coach youth baseball.

This is an excellent place to work because it allows me to work with younger baseball players. If gives me an opportunity to give a little back in appreciation to those coaches who have spent so much time and effort helping me develop not only my baseball skills but life lessons such as hard work, dedication, and sacrifice in order to achieve my goals.
