Techno beats kick
soccer player into gear

Q: Who is your favorite athlete?

A: I love Lionel Messi because although he is one of the best players in the world, he always finds a way to humble himself and play as a team. He is not selfish and wants everybody to share the spotlight.
Q: Who is your greatest inspiration?
A: My brother. He stopped swimming for five years, and he returned to the sport better than ever. He trained hard to get better, and in the end, he reached all of his goals. I look up to him for inspiration and hope to be like him one day.
Q: Do you have any pre-game rituals?
A: I actually do. I have to listen to "Strobe" from Deadmau5, wear my pink soccer jersey for soccer or tie a ribbon on my head for swimming. I also tell myself that win or lose, I will give my best for my team.
