I worked for a great company in tourism and gained experience from very qualified people. I saw the American dream vividly with my own eyes and realized that the world is not small at all.”

I deeply appreciate the opportunities that have been offered to me at the club, Mr Nunez, the club’s general manager and Mr Rick Cirillo.
