OVERALL ABILITY ON THE COURT:

I love sports. I’m always focused on improving and giving the best of me. I like to be constant, devoted and persevering to achieve my goals. I think it is important to hear the comments of others in order to improve more each time. I like to be in good shape and be healthy. Tennis is definitely something that makes up a big part of my past, something that lives in my present and something that for sure will be in my future. I am confident in my technique and my game. I am a person who is very strict with the order, I like everything to be as it should be.

STRENGTHS ON THE COURT:

My greatest strength in the court is my agility, as this allows me to move quickly and effectively. I am secure with my right hand because I know that I can define good points with it. I try to keep a good attitude during the games, because it is definitely the key to define the winner. I think that both the defeats and the victories teach you something, therefore, I am always willing to accept my mistakes, learn from them and overcome them.

WEAKNESSES ON THE COURT:

The thing that affects me the most during games is my psychological part, when something does not come out as I had hoped I get discouraged, however what I do is to think of something that I like or that is of my total satisfaction so I can get in the right frame of mind to achieve a good attitude throughout the match and move on. I feel I have weakness with the volley, especially the backhand, and this cause me a bit of distrust in the net.

HOBBIES AND PERSONAL INTEREST

I like to participate in athletics, they have very little in the year therefore sought to be in all of them, what I like to do most in my free time is dance, I love doing it, but I do it three times a week at the gym, I like to be in good shape, maintain good health, balanced. On the other hand, I love reading, before I go to bed, I read more or less hour and a half a day, the last thing I read was the famous trilogy of E. L James (fifty shadows). The television did not call me a lot of attention so I only see movies.

DESCRIBE YOUR SELF AS A PERSON

I like to be competent, get to where I want to go, to feel that I can give more than what I give and think that I can be more than what I am. I think that the greatest satisfaction is to achieve something that you worked hard for, for what you have fought to achieve some proposed merit. I think that it is necessary to put heart and soul to what I do so it will be reflected in life. I am happy when the people that are around me are happy. I am a merry person and full of expectations, my highest principle is to respect in order to get respect”, finally enjoy life to the fullest and improve each time more.
