After High-school I will got to Dallas Baptist University in the fall and get my degree in either Criminal Justice and or Business. After College I will join the Air-force and be part of the security forces. Then after I have served my time , I will transfer to a law enforcement agency. When I retire, I will move back to Thailand and become a missionary there. 

I have been playing tennis since I was very , but I never played competitive tennis until High school. At first I was a bit cautious of joining, but after playing for Benbrook High, I have enjoyed every minute of it !  I love the community and atmosphere of tennis and I love playing and challenging myself. 

What makes me different is my background and experience due to living in another country. I used to homeschool most of my live which to me has helped me be creative and be able to think outside the box in my school, and help me manage my time. I am able to maintain A's and B's and participate in my many extracurricular activities and sports.
