Grappling has been at the core of my life since I first put on a gi at four years old and later began judo/sambo training. Growing up in an immigrant family where wrestling plays a serious part in our cultural identity, I had an unbeatable drive and motivation that allowed me to compete nationally and internationally by age seven under legendary coaches such as founder of Sambo 70 and Judo/Sambo world champion David Rudman.
With my exceptional academic achievements and vigor, It has always been a dream of mine to wrestle at a school with an elite academic program as well. I bring toughness, discipline, and unmatched dedication, which would add strength to any wrestling team and academic program I am a part of. I am ready to share my experience and indomitable spirit with a program that would push me past my limits in every aspect.
