Hobbies and Interests
I play several video games semi-professionally. I spend my free time with a team where we work together and learn to play together. Over the past few years I have earned a bit of money playing in tournaments with this team. It has taught me how to see the positives in people and how to use that to work together as a team. I love to improve myself and focus on mindfulness, as well as go to the gym very frequently.
