Introduction
My love for tennis started when I was only 4 years old when I touched a tennis racket for the first time. I'm 18 years old now, but I've been dreaming of this moment since I was 8 and won my first tournament ever, when I realized that tennis is everything for me. Due to my parents' divorce it was not financially possible for me to play tennis and I had stopped for 3 years. But inside I couldn't go on without the thing that makes me truly happy. And I decided that I will try again and step by step I started walking again towards my real dream which is to become a successful tennis player competing in my dream place which is the United States in a college team with which we can go places.

Interview
What makes you different?
The thing that makes me different I think is my passion for this sport because it was almost taken away from me and
then I realized how much it means to me. And now I'm motivated than ever!
Why do you want to compete in college?
I want to compete in college because I think I have what it takes to be a part of a college team. That would be an amazing opportunity. I would be able to
support my teammates while also being supported by them. Additionally, I would have the chance to study at a
great school and experience all a college life has to offer. I am incredibly excited about this opportunity and am dedetermined to make my dream a reality.
College goals
I will strive to be a good student and graduate with honors. Of course to help my tennis team in
achieving great results. It will be very interesting for me to meet and play with guys from other countries and to make new friends.
Tennis and life Goals?
I want to be a college tennis player and after I graduate, tennis will be still part of my daily life. I want to become a well educated and successful person and start a family one day.
Anything else we should know?
The interesting thing about me is that while I had stopped playing tennis I found a new talent of mine - singing.
I was in a music school where I also started playing the piano. To this day, I go to performances sometimes.
