SPORTS

I love sports. I may not be the best at it, but it's very important to me. Sports has been a way I can connect with others and really push myself to improve. I wasn't born naturally sporty. In fact, for the first few years of my life I had to have physical therapy to stretch out leg muscles that would cause me to trip. But little by little and with a lot of work, I got better. And that is all that is important to me, to just get better.

Tennis

In 2023 I went on an adventure with my 7 yr old brother and mother to try worldschooling. I spent three months in a small town outside of Valencia playing Tennis for 5 hours a day and making new friends. The best part of that trip was feeling like I was part of a big family. Spain is always going to be a place I call home.

Rowing

I started rowing when I was only 9 years old. I started because I loved the idea of being with a team. I started at the Pacific Rowing Club on Lake Merced and it was right at the Pandemic. I would wake up at 5am just to make it there by 6:30 in the morning every Sunday. It was worth it because it was the only place I could feel totally at peace.
