How supportive were your parents (family) of your plan to study and play sports abroad?

My parents supported me in every possible way. They wanted to provide the best opportunities for both my education and my athletic career. We all felt that studying in the United States would allow me to achieve both.

How did Study N Sport help you?

Study N Sport helped introduce me to universities that I most likely would not have been able to reach on my own. They made the entire process much easier and always kept us informed about the next step.

How did training in the U.S. compare to training in Hungary?

In the U.S., practices place a strong emphasis on maintaining a positive attitude and high energy throughout every session.

How easy or difficult was it to adjust? How did you manage with the language?

Adjusting was easy for me because the team welcomed me right away. I lived with my teammates, so I had a supportive group of friends from day one. I also didn’t face many language barriers, as I had already lived in the United States during my high school years.

How was your diet in the U.S. different from what you were used to in Hungary?

During my college years, meals were often provided by the university, and every student-athlete received access to the campus food court. Outside of campus, however, fast-food restaurants were by far the most common dining option.

What has been your greatest achievement or favorite memory since you started playing basketball? What are you most proud of?

One of the accomplishments I’m most proud of during my time in the U.S. was being named Freshman of the Year, which meant I was recognized as the top first-year player in my conference. It is an honor that I will always be proud of.

What do you like most about America? Do you think there is such a thing as the “American lifestyle,” and if so, how is it different from life in Hungary?

I do think there is an American lifestyle, and it’s something that can only truly be experienced by living there. It’s a unique feeling that is difficult to describe unless you’ve experienced it yourself.

What do you think about the American education system? What do they do better—or simply differently—than in Hungary?

The American education system is much more project-based. We worked on solving real-world problems and learned how to complete projects from beginning to end, gaining practical experience throughout the process.

What are your future goals, both in sports and outside of sports (in the U.S. and beyond)?

I am currently still playing basketball in Hungary because it’s something that is very difficult to leave behind. However, my main priority is now my career. Fortunately, my job is still closely connected to basketball, as I currently work in a leadership position at my former club, Csata DSE.
