My Current Leadership Situation: ​I am a leader of a Division One Football Program. (Leader of a sports program)

Background Information:​ I am from Compton, California. Growing up my life was tough due to the gang violence. I watched my mother struggle to raise me and my sister alone, my father was never present in my life. With this being said, I go hard and give it my all to football so I can make it to provide for my family. My mother did whatever it took to get me in the position in which I am in today. Additionally, my mother always preached the importance of a college education, which is why I go to school and strive to be the best I can. I gained my work ethic from my mother, at a point in time my family was homeless and I watched my mother grind hard to change our circumstances.
