What makes you different?
As my parents have taught me, I fight for what I want and I work hard until I reach my goals, but without damaging others. When I have to do something, I always try to do my best because I hate doing something half heartedly. I think that I am also a good person, because for me, helping others is essential in life.
Why do you want to compete in college?
Because I am in love with the college atmosphere. I think that it would be amazing to compete like they do, with a lot of spectators and, mainly, with a team that supports and believes in you.
What are your gymnastics and life goals?
In gymnastics I have always had two dreams, going to the Olympics and competing in a college team. In regards to my life goals, I have a lot of them, but the most important ones for me are getting a biology degree so that I can do research and help people and to build a family and travel around the world with them.
Anything else we should know?
As I train a lot of hours, I do not have much time to dedicate to other passions, but in my free time I love to do things with my family and read books.
