Hi Obed, welcome to EL&U. Regretably, I'm flagging this question for closure: proofreading questions ("Is this correct?", "Is there a better way to write this passage?") are off-topic unless a specific source of concern in the text is clearly identified. For further guidance, see How to Ask and take the Tour. And FWIW, yes the sentence is fine. :-)
