I am a 2025 High School Graduate searching for a university that can help me fulfil both future academic and athletic goals.I come from a Track and Field family my dad being a National Middle Distance Champion, my Aunt a National Sprinter Winner, my Cousin being a European Sprinter Champion and finally my grandmother who was a National Long Jump Champion. I am grateful that they’ve allowed me to discover by myself my passion for the sport.
My athletics involvement started in 2018 at the age of 12 after coming 6th at elementary schools Nationals competition at 75m. Through the years my love and passion for the sport grew immensely. I am a hardworking athlete constantly pushing my self and always striving for excellence not only in training sessions but also in competitions and academically. I am excited to continue pursuing my athletics goals and improving my own personal bests at a collegiate level.
I’ve competed in the 80 and 150m 300m sprints at the under 16 competitions up until the age of 14, and continued with 100m,200m (PB: 26.26) and in my first ever race in the 400m (PB: 59.09)I recorded a time of 59.78 which also meant a 2nd in National U18. I also received National awards as Student Athlet which combines my Athletics achievements with my academic ones and support to the Cyprus Anticancer Association during their semi annual events.
I am lucky to be surrounded by successful athletes such as my coach and his wife who are both Olympians at 800m and 400m respectively and they are guiding me and inspiring me daily ensuring a supportive environment throughout. Looking for a University team who can challenge me and support and appreciate me the same way so I can deliver the best out me for the University.
