Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
Swimming provides me with many opportunities to train and compete overseas, make new friends and be part of a great team. It gets me out of my comfort zone and teaches me to take care of myself and believe in the process to achieve my goals. I therefore believe that swimming has taught me so many things and I have really enjoyed the entire process!
Goals:
Meet A time for 2024 Olympic Games!
Anything else we should know?
I have received several awards during military service! Best Recruit, Best in Physical Training and Sword of Merit. These awards are testaments to my ability to adapt and do well under different circumstances. In high school, besides balancing swimming and academic demands, I was a student leader and captain of my school swim team. I also volunteered in various community initiatives including teaching under-privileged students to swim and helping them in their studies.
