Athlete Info
Introduction
I have been wrestling since I was a kid and even though I started it for fun, I fell in love with the sport. Wrestling taught me many things like discipline, self-confidence, respect and many more qualities that will help me improve my academic and athletic skills.
A dream of mine has always been to not only visit the US , but also get the chance to be a part of their incredible education system. Being a part of one of USA’s Collage or University teams would help me improve myself and let me take a big step not only as an athlete, but also as a student!

Interview
What makes you different?
Throughout my whole life I’ve learned many things and gained qualities that loads of people my age don’t have.
I’m honest,disciplined, respectful. I value my moral principles and even though wrestling is not a team sport thanks to the support of my coach and teammates I’ve learned that teamwork in all shapes and forms is extremely important.
Why do you want to compete in college?
So I can not only greatly improve my athleticism and knowledge, but also explore the unique culture of the US and also see the world in a different light.
College goals
Be the best at what I do and what I study, while I improve not only as an athlete, but also as a person. I hope I will be surrounded by people with similar goals and drive for success.
Wrestling and life Goals?
My wrestling goals are to not only to improve my skills and qualities, but also to be the best I can in the sport that I love and value.
My life goals don’t differentiate from my wrestling ones. I want to improve and better myself while exploring a new part of the world and managing my academic development.
