“One thing that has served to motivate me over the years has been my involvement with tennis. I’ve been playing competitively since I was 7, and I have learned that if I want to improve and win, I need to work hard, problem-solve, and persevere. These traits have carried over to my school work, which I view as an opportunity to problem-solve and challenge myself to be the best version of myself I can be.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
