I was lucky enough to grow up in a tennis family. As a kid, and later as a student, I spent countless hours at the tennis club. Not only to play tennis, but also because of the group of close friends I met there.
Following my graduation from Climate Studies, I started working at Climate Adaptation Services, a foundation dedicated to climate-proofing our world. My work focuses on projects in Bangladesh, Ghana, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique, where I strengthen the capacities of local governments and universities. During my travels, I witnessed the drive of young people to acquire new skills and the transformative impact they have on their communities and families.

My style of tennis is based on hard work and perseverance. Through the Thirty Love Foundation, I will use these characteristics to offer youth from disadvantaged backgrounds a chance to experience the same sense of joy, friendships, and personal growth that the sport has brought into my life. I can’t wait to serve up a brighter future, one game-changing moment at a time.
