Name: Dora Biocic

Country: Croatia

My name is Dora Biocic, and I'm from Croatia. I came to the United States in August 2006, and my major is International Business. I'm part of the DeAnza swim team for the past 2 years and I achieved more than I ever expected. Being 2nd on the State Championships, and at the same time breaking a 30 year old school record in the same event is an amazing experience. Also, it is an honor to be chosen a Female Scholar Athlete of the Year.
