Why Mathilda Kitzmann Chose Stanford

  • "Stanford gives me opportunity for an outstanding education and to purse the sport I love, at the same time, but also and even more important at an enormous high level in a striving atmosphere next to extremely ambitious and still humble teammates. In this way it is a chance of a lifetime to grow as a human both mentally and physically."
