Interview
What makes you different
I am a very competitive person with amazing qualities. Moreover, when it comes to learning new ways of improving myself, I am second to none. I always keep a goal in mind when I’m training so that way I’m as motivated as possible. I still have a lot more to grow as a racer since my career is a bit shorter than most swimmers.
College goals
My goal in college is to do everything with passion and devotion so that I know I have given everything possible to succeed.
Why do you want to compete in college?
I believe there is no better place in the world where I can compete at the highest level while getting the best education. I’ve always dreamed about competing for an American college or university.
Swimming and life Goals?
I want to succeed both in life and in my career as a swimmer by becoming the best version of myself possible.
