“I believe that experience a new country and culture is the best way to get knowledge and get an understanding of yourself and each other. The college experience gives the opportunity to do exactly this and at the same time gives openings for the future with a good education and possibility to go pro with your sport. To expand my network with people from all over the world and create special bonds with them though my college career was very special. The two years I had in college was the best and most eye-opening experience I ever had. I became a wiser person both on and off the field. To assist and give that same experience and help others to pursue their ambitions is the reason why I am working for CSUSA.”
