I was a 3-year college athlete competing in Tennis at the University of Puerto Rico D3 University

As a young girl, I developed a love for Volleyball and played 4 years in high school as a setter. I really like the competitive aspect of the game and developed good team player ethics.

As a grew older, my Dad loved the game of Tennis, so on weekends when I had no tournaments or practice to attend with my volleyball team, I began to play Tennis with my Dad at our neighborhood course. Very quickly I began to love both sports but realized I was better at Tennis than volleyball.

Lucky for me the coach from the University of Puerto Rico saw me play with my Dad one day and liked what they saw. They approached me and asked me “How would you like to play for the university team”? I played the second racket for 3 years and loved it. But I always remember how lucky I was to be discovered!

Moral of the story fast forward to today… loving multiple sports and with the competition level so fierce in all sports, having the internet as a resource is a dream come true!!

The NCSA family is an excellent digital platform with multiple resources to select what is most important to your families and athlete specific needs. Whether you play one sport or multiple ones, the access to a “one-stop shop” that allows you to connect to coaches, colleges, and download videos and set profiles is amazing! It is not a stroke of luck, but the education and the trusted source that will be accessible to you what would increase the athlete’s recruiting chances!

Love sports and you can find me playing golf, tennis or volleyball whenever I can.

I am very happy and humble at the opportunity to get to know your specific needs and offer what makes more sense with your Recruiting needs!
