What makes you different?
What sets me apart is my relentless work and my constant determination. I give 100% in everything I do, whether it’s on the court or in my personal development, and I’m always ready to face tough moments head-on. I thrive on competition, but I also believe in listening and learning from others to continuously improve. My commitment to never giving up, no matter the challenge is what drives me to achieve my goals.

It provides ideal conditions for intensive training and an uplifting environment that would allow me to improve, which is crucial for pursuing my tennis career at the highest level. At the same time, it’s a good opportunity for me to earn a diploma that will always remain useful in the future. I’m also drawn to the American mentality of fearlessness, fighting spirit, and competition, which aligns with my own values and will be a significant asset in my development.
Tennis and Life goals?
