About Athlete
I started playing golf when I was 7 and the first National Championship I participated in, I was fortunate enough to win it, and that’s when my passion for golf commenced. During the first 8 years of my golf career, I was mainly coached by my father. Since 2019, I joined and started working with a professional team, who have helped me massively.
My goal is to play College Golf and combine my business management studies in the US, at the highest level. I consider myself a very resilient and motivated person, thus, I give my best towards accomplishing my goals. I want to play collegiate golf and be part of a successful team and give my best on the team.
