Danielle G. Bush: Beyond the Music "My Sports Autobiography".



Danielle G. Bush was born April 28, 1987, in Detroit Michigan to Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth and Charlotte Bush. I was the youngest of 5. I was a real active kid who loved to talk, my mom use to say “you have a real gift for gab Danielle”. Until I started 1^st grade and my talking got me in trouble. Although I always had a good reason for my talking in class, my gift started to become my cruse. I never stop talking; I just learn that there was a time and a place for everything. My dad felt I had more energy than the average and that was the cause of my talking, so by the summer of 1^st grade he signed me up for every sport you could think of for a 7 year old. So from the age of 7 to 18 I played softball, tennis, basketball, soccer, flag football, and I was on the swim team. The only sport I took a real liking to was softball I played from the age 9 to 18. It had become a passion for me and I enjoyed the feeling I got when I touched the field.

I played softball thru rain, high winds, and heat waves. I played thru pain, sweat and tears, because I loved the sport so much. After four year of playing in high school my softball career came to a stop because I had broke my arm in our last game of my senior year. It was my 2^nd time breaking it in 5 years and I didn’t want to risk it happening again so I put down my gear and head towards a new passion of mine which was singing. Till this day I wish I could play again but now I only play for fun with the kids I work with over the summer at the Detroit Recreation Centers. I do intend to continue work in the sports field as well as remain a passionate consumer and participant to softball and other sports. Just because you don’t play doesn’t mean you’re not a valued part of a team. I will graduate from Tiffin University in 2012 with a degree in Business Marketing and Sports and Recreation Management. I would love to one day do some Sports Marketing, and a little Club Promoting on the side for fun. When I was a kid, I talked a lot, and from me talking I found sports and in sports I found softball my passion my first LOVE. My history with Business, Marketing, and the Sports world will help me get where I am trying to go in the future.
