About Athlete

When I was a child I was interested in many sports especially dance, swimming and golf. At the age of 12 I discovered my real passion to be the game of golf. So I dedicate a lot of my time to the sport.

I love playing golf because you are always trying to overcome yourself, it’s an outdoor activity and it’s always different (every shot differs from the other). It’s an individual sport but I love to be part of a team and you also have the opportunity to spend your spare time playing with friends whether it’s for recreation or for competitions.

I like individual competitions, but being part of a team is what brings out the best in me!

In any case, I never give up!

I’m ready for a fresh challenge in life and to collect the new opportunities and knowledge that college will reserve for

I have attended 3 weeks at the Jason Floyd Golf Academy.

What makes you different?

I’m not afraid to have hard workouts,

I have a lot to learn and give for golf, school and team work.

I thrive in working with teams and I believe in the power of having a great synergy between all team members (athletes, coaches and tutors).

When I’m under pressure and I have “to take home” a positive result, that’s when I perform at my best within golf and education.

Why do you want to compete in college?

I honestly believe that being part of a college, is a unique occasion in life! I’ll have the opportunity to improve my golf and English skills and it will be a great experience that I’ll take with me for the rest of my life and it will certainly leave a positive sign for my future.

I love challenges and to discover new things.

I’m curious and sometimes positively foolish. I like Team Work!

College Goals?

I would like to perfectly assimilate the college life style, achieving excellent results both in golf and academics.

Anything else we should know?

I’m versatile, I’m a “sunny” person, I like any kind of sports, good food, having fun with friends and traveling.

I hope to find a good mentor who can gain my confidence and bring out the best in me both in golf and with my college experience.
