Athletics & Discipline
Taekwondo
Earned Black Belt by the American Taekwondo Association (ATA). The training taught me focus, control, and respect, instilling mental strength and self-discipline that carry over into everything I do.
Track & Field & Soccer
In middle school, I placed 2nd in my school and 9th in the district for track, pushing myself to maintain endurance in the 1600m and 2400m events. I also played soccer for several years, developing teamwork skills and learning how to read the game.
Hobbies & Interests
Outdoor Adventures
I love hiking and camping, especially challenging trips like summiting Angel's Landing in Zion National Park or camping in freezing temperatures with my dad. These outdoor adventures test both physical endurance and mental resilience.
Mental Puzzles & Music
At home, I often unwind by reading fiction or timing myself on the Rubik's cube (Personal Best: 32 seconds). I also have 4 years of Spanish, play as a violinist in the orchestra, and am a recreational pianist.
