2023 HighlightsPersonal Statement
My primary goal in tennis is continuous improvement, with the aspiration of playing competitive college tennis at an institution that aligns perfectly with my athletic and academic aspirations. I find the challenge of competing against stronger players particularly valuable for my development, even more so than securing wins against less experienced opponents.
Athletics has always held significant importance within my family. Beyond tennis, I have actively participated in various team sports, including high school football, little league baseball, and basketball. I deeply value the experience of being part of a team and learning from my coaches.
