I started fencing a few years ago and quickly found it to be my passion, I've qualified for Summer Nationals in San Jose, CA. Going to this event will bring me one step closer to my dreams and help me achieve greater success. This year I was recruited to a Division 1 college for fencing. My coach is also advising me to fence in Poland this summer. Unfortunately, money is tight for my family and my only chance of getting to Nationals is through the help and support of others. I know that if I'm given this chance I can perform well as an individual and also with my team!
