I spend a lot of my time doing Jiu Jutsu, Running and working out. I also enjoy reading books mostly nonfiction phycology or memoirs. I am also certified as a Open water, Nitrox, Advanced, and Rescue Scuba Diver. I am currently working on my application to hopefully go to University of Tokyo for Marine Biology. I have always enjoyed teaching and helping people to become the best version of themselves. My goal in life is to experience as much as I can by traveling and keeping an open mind to learn more about different peoples and cultures.
