Why do you want to compete in college?

I’m mostly looking forward into enrolling into a university with a good academic level and an even better tennis level so I can be able to develop my tennis and my studies.

In my opinion college tennis will help me become a better person and a better player , experiencing being in a team and playing tennis at the best level while making friendships that will last a lifetime seems like and incredible opportunity.

With going to college in the US I would like to become a professional player afterwards the experience.

College Goals?

Besides my academic goals of being the best student I can be, I would like to help our team win the conference championships and be able to make in to the NCAA’s championships.

I want to make the best of my experience and practice hard and work hard to become a better person and player everyday at a time.

Anything else we should know?

I am quite the perfectionist, I always try my best and work very hard towards my goals , which are becoming pro.

I would consider myself a very responsible yet fun person to be around, I love to meet new people and try new things even though I seem shy in the beginning.

Some of my personal interest would be drawing, writing and listening to music , it really helps me focus and relax.
