Accomplishments

    In addition to my writing, I assisted in teaching a Tenth Grade English Class during my Senior Year of high school. I helped plan lessons, led class discussions, and read books to the class for them to better understand their reading material. This led to praise from the school principal and an additional certificate from the teacher.

Additional Information

I am a trans-male, and I prefer to be addressed with the pronouns 'he/him'.

Writing, drawing, video games

I write as an outlet. I am a creative writer.

My drawing is not as good as an artist, but I tend to doodle and draw for fun in my notebooks. It helps me to focus.

Video games are my way of de-stressing after a long day, and I will often play old video games with friends that we've been playing since we were children.

Writing

I write as an outlet. I am a creative writer and spend a lot of my free time writing stories about various characters, some from movies and shows, some from video games, and some original characters of my own design.

I often publish my works online, and I have several works in progress that I am eager to continue.
