Interview

What makes you different?

My versatility as both an outside hitter and libero in National 2, along with my experience in beach volleyball, sets me apart from other players. Competing in both indoor and beach volleyball has helped me develop a strong, all-around skill set that includes powerful attacking, accurate passing, and quick reflexes. My ability to adapt to different roles on the court shows my dedication to supporting my team, no matter the position. I am also very passionate about academics, particularly in the sciences, and bring the same focus and commitment to my studies as I do to volleyball. This balance of athletic and academic dedication makes me a well-rounded and resilient player.

Why do you want to play in the U.S college system?

The U.S. college system offers the perfect combination of high-level athletics and strong academics, which is exactly what I am looking for. Competing in U.S. college volleyball will allow me to push myself as an athlete, with the chance to play both indoor and beach volleyball at a competitive level. I am excited about the high-quality coaching, advanced facilities, and the team-oriented environment in college sports. At the same time, the diverse science programs in the U.S. will allow me to explore my academic interests, whether in biology, chemistry, or environmental science. The flexibility of the U.S. college system will help me grow both as a student and as an athlete.

Volleyball and Life goals

My immediate goal is to join a U.S. college team where I can continue to develop as a player, whether as an outside hitter, libero, or in beach volleyball. I am eager to bring my skills and adaptability to my future team and to contribute in any way I can. Academically, I am committed to pursuing a degree in the sciences, as I am passionate about understanding the world around us and hope to contribute to the field in a meaningful way. Long term, I would love to explore a career in science, perhaps in research or environmental studies, while staying connected to volleyball, whether through coaching or community involvement. Combining my passion for science and sports will allow me to make a positive impact in both fields.
