Hi, I am Yakub Azimov
I am a young self-disciplined and motivated athlete who loves to think out of the box and solve problems. I have a strong passion for sport, food and good humour; love putting a smile on other people’s faces and playing with my siblings. I am excited about the future and hopeful that my interests, unquenchable curiosity and hard work will serve as a stepping stones to success in various fields including performing arts. The desire for knowledge and the opportunity to be surrounded by like-minded peers are the basis of my motivation to pursue further education. I will aim to reach my potential in sports and excel in subjects such as maths or space science. But my ultimate goal is to become an Olympian.
