Interests

I’m passionate about lifelong learning and personal well-being. I enjoy reading as a way to expand my perspective and stay curious, and I prioritize staying active to maintain both physical and mental health. Building meaningful connections is very important to me, so I balance quality time with friends and family with moments to myself that allow me to recharge and center myself. This balance helps me stay grounded.
