I am speech brainstorm

• Family history, grandfather from Italy to now 
• Pivotal experience in my life, breaking my ankle
• In the class vs outside class, I think I am generally the same person maybe more of a hard worker outside the class
• Influences, my dad, hitting coach, old coaches saying I didn't have the skill to play at the next level
• Different aspects of my personality, can be outgoing but also can be shy and can be awkward 

Outline

1. Pivotal experience in my life (breaking my ankle)
2. Influences (how my parents helped me push through it, how some of my coaches never thought I could play college baseball)
3. Where I am now (what I'm doing well what I can work on)

As the character Rocky Balboa once said "Every champion was once a contender that refused to give up".  If you keep on working hard you will achieve your ultimate goal no matter what that is.  Hello everyone, my name is Joey Bramanti.  I originate from North Andover, MA but attend Cheshire Academy where I am a postgraduate and play on the baseball team.  Ive had a long journey throughout my high school years fighting injury and getting back to where I am today.
