When not playing soccer, you can find me playing basketball, reading or cooking.
The city I would most like to visit is London.
If I could speak only one other language, I would learn to speak Mandarin because it is the most spoken language in the world
For my summer vacation, I went to Washington D.C. for a week with my family and saw museums, monuments, battle fields, and old plantations.
The first piece of information that I would pass onto the freshmen would be play with heart, and without fear or worries. Use your college career for something great.
