Angus Sinclair What really sets me apart from others is my overwhelming drive to succeed. I am able to adapt quickly to new surroundings and love facing new challenges in life. I am excellent at responding to feedback, this allows me to make progress quickly and improve my skills. I have attended boarding school from age 12, which has allowed me to grow independently and learn to mix with people in a setting similar to what I imagine the collegiate setting to be. I am used to spending long periods of time away from my family, these experiences will me to adapt and settle quickly in the US when attending college.

Interview

Why should a coach choose you for their team? During recent years my school career has involved a large variety of sporting events. This has lead to me having to work very hard to find the right balance between my sport and my academic work. This has taught me a valuable lesson in time management, I am now able to manage my time wisely and effectively which allows me to make the most of all the opportunities I am given. I am extremely passionate about sport and cannot imagine life without it. I take my training very seriously but I am able to have enjoy myself and have fun at the same time. I love being in an environment where I am surrounded by others who share similar dreams and aspirations to me. This helps me to stay motivated and, in addition, allows me to motivate others around me. How hard do you work on your goals? When I have a goal focus all my energy into achieving it and no matter how tough things may get I always find a way to carry on. As I am getting closer to achieving goal I will push myself beyond the necessary requirements to reach it. From personal experience I have learned that If I do not put 100 percent effort into a task then I will not improve. Hence, I put maximal effort into everything I do. I have a great self drive which helps me to keep sight of my goals and pushes me ever closer towards achieving them.
