Student-Athlete Q&A
What made Liberty University the right place for you to attend college/compete at the collegiate level?
I am excited to continue developing my interpersonal faith with God and to grow as a person. Alongside obtaining a degree, Liberty University will help me become a leader and use my God-given talents to transform the world for good. Liberty's values will allow me to stay focused and dedicated to my sport.
Is there anything special you do pregame or postgame and why?
No but I love listening music before a game, for motivation.
Who in your life inspires you and why are they such an inspiration?
My twin brother who is now breaking into men's tennis. He motivates me with his persistence and with the fact that he follows his dream, which is to be a great tennis player.
What is your most memorable athletic moment/accomplishment?
When I competed for the Bulgarian national team. Representing your country is a great honor.
