Introduction

Welcome to my e-portfolio, a digital showcase of my journey as an international Division 1 student athlete at Longwood University. I am Aine Martin, and I invite you to explore the intersection of academics and athletics that defines my unique educational experience.

As a student athlete, I have embraced the challenges and victories that come with balancing the demands of academics and sports performance, while also being in a foreign country away from my family. This e-portfolio serves as a testament to my commitment to both academics and athletics.

Within these digital pages, you are invited to delve deeper into my life history, from my experiences in education and sport and the personal growth that I have experienced throughout my life so far. I will share an insight into my demanding schedule and the immense pressure that student athletes are under.

The main focus of this e-portfolio is the achievement of playing Division 1 golf, an accomplishment that not only represents the skill, dedication, and hard work that I applied to golf but also the invaluable experience gained, and connections made through the pursuit of success.

Join me on this journey and thank you for taking the time to explore my e-portfolio.
