Interests

  • I am an active member of Stealth Black Belt Academy where I have trained for over 3 years which has taught me the basic and advanced mechanics of kickboxing. I regularly go there 5 times a week as it is really beneficial for my fitness and overall mental health due to the mental and physical challenges of the sport, cultivating resilience and determination. During those training sessions I can push myself, my colleagues and have fun. I am currently at purple belt on my journey to becoming a black belt which has given me the perseverance and adept discipline I need.
  • I have always been interested and enjoyed experimenting with science projects in my free time, fostering a deeper understanding of scientific principles. Whenever I can, I try to participate in science projects which has led me to becoming a participant in the Athena STEM summer camp in 2022 where I have been involved in a project to create and present a sustainable island community.
  • I am a strong believer of spending quality time with friends and building strong, meaningful relationships. I have always enjoyed exploring different foods and cultures within my community, so where possible I organize and participate in social gatherings where I indulge in trying new foods and exploring different restaurants with friends, fostering a sense of shared experiences. I recognize the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance and prioritize moments of joy with friends.
