I started playing water polo 9 years ago and before that I usually took swimming lessons to be able to start this sport. I choose water polo because of the success of the Hungarian national team at the 2004 Olympics. I am currently playing at OSC but my first team was Honvéd one of the most known teams in Hungary. I only played for this two teams during my career. I want to study at The United States because of the quality of the schools and because of the opportunity to continue the sport that gave me so much things I can be proud of. I want to study sport management because I want to stay around sports all my life and I want to help water polo became a well known and loved sport like ice hockey and handball.
