OVERALL ABILITY ON THE COURT:
I am a left-handed player with a lot of motor skills and coordination, I have a lot of ease with my hand and I consider myself a complete player since I have very good technique and power in my hits to do damage from any position or adverse game situation because I have a certain ease in executing them. I am very intelligent or strategic when I play matches, it is much easier for me than for other players to solve complicated game situations, in most cases because I can read my opponents’ game very well, I have an excellent reading ability in the sense of knowing more or less where they think to play me and attack me, I also have a very strong mentality and a lot of variety in play to always stand out in the face of adversity and win matches. I am a very focused, passionate player with a lot of fighting ability which helps me always have the best results.

STRENGTHS ON THE COURT:
Being left-handed I have advantages over my opponents since I can attack their weaknesses more easily since most of them are right-handed. Among my skills are:

1. A powerful forehand that helps me dominate points.
2. A well-placed serve with power and good technique. (Serve and Volley)
3. My volley, which I consider a great weapon because I am very effective with it
to resolve complicated game situations and shorten points. In my style of play I always try to go up 2 or 3 times per game, since today there are more players who play from the baseline than those who go up to volley with their serve. In addition, this powerful weapon helps me perform very well both in Doubles and Singles.
4. And finally, my most important weapon is my mentality and my “grit” that generate my great ability and excellent attitude on the court; I never give up and I am always fighting for every point.

HOBBIES AND PERSONAL INTEREST
I am very interested in reading about current events, and I also really enjoy making music, an activity I learned by watching videos and with people who know about the subject.
