When and where did you start playing tennis? --- I started playing tennis when I was about four or five years old. My siblings are older and were already playing competitive tennis. I was born into a competitive tennis playing family.
What factors led to your decision to attend USF? --- I am from Fremont, CA and love the bay area and I feel there is no better way to represent the bay. That is why I chose USF.
Where would you like to spend a week's vacation? --- I enjoy tropical places for vacations the most, but I would love to go somewhere in Europe because I have never been there.
What is the best/worst thing about being a college athlete? --- The worst thing about being a college athlete would have to be missing out on San Francisco events, although it is not that bad because there are always others. The best thing would have to be being on a team. Very general, but I'm sure most athletes know what I mean. It is an amazing experience, especially when the team gets along so well like ours.
What drives you as a player? --- Me, my goals, my team
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? --- Does not really matter to me as long as I am happy.
If you had a supernatural power, what would it be? --- If I see something done, I can do the same perfectly.
Who has had the greatest impact on your athletic career? --- My teammates and my family
Name your favorite movie and favorite food. --- Grandma's Boy and Pla Rad Prik
What is the best thing about your hometown? --- Friends, and when I walk in my house it's clean.
If you won the lottery, what is the first thing that you would buy or pay for? --- I would make my own recording studio
What is the biggest difference between San Francisco and home? --- SF is the city. My home is full of peaks and trees.
What class has taught you the most at USF? --- Ethics taught me the most about being a person. Entrepreneurship taught me the most about being a business person. Guitar lessons have taught me the most about what I love.
What is your biggest sports accomplishment? --- Recently I would have to say receiving the most improved player award last season (Fall 2008).
Describe yourself in three words. --- Passionate, creative and fun
