My names Ismael Dembele, I’m a horizontal jumper at CSU. Originally I was born and raised in the Ivory Coast and came to America in 2012. I’ve been in aurora colorado ever since. I played all sports in high school but I decided to run track in college. Running track has been the best decision I’ve made because it opened a lot of doors for me and it keeps me humble to understand that there’s always more to achieve.
