tennis,
The game of tennis has given me the confidence and passion I have to aspiring to be the best version of myself. Not only do I have fun doing it, I also have been so proud of giving back to underserved communities through a non-profit organization SecondServe by donating used tennis equipment. I feel like the game of tennis has given me a ton of wisdom and perspective, and I felt it was only right to also give back.
