Personal Highlights

My interests include writing, acting, dancing, singing, practicing Taekwondo and traveling. I like balancing my social life with my Taekwondo life. My favorite food is Fettuccine Alfredo. My favorite movie is Zootopia. Favorite Quote "“I don’t want other people to decide who I am. I want to decide that for myself" by Emma Watson. I started Taekwondo when I was six years old and I have learned leadership, persistance, resilience, teamwork and patience. Fun fact: I have a brother who also participates in Taekwondo with me!
