Participated in community theatre, competitive dance for 8 years, weightlifting, tennis, plays flute

I participated in my local community theatre for two shows. During this time I gained strong skills in communication, teamwork, and the entertainment field. The shows consisted of dancing, acting, and singing. Besides theatre, I also did competitive Irish Dance for 8 years. This taught me more teamwork skills as well, as I was strongly committed to a competitive dance team that placed 1st in Nationals. Currently, I am very focused on prioritizing my health and increasing my strength. I have been lifting for 2 years now with a personal trainer, I also track my macronutrients. Growing up I played tennis for my 5th grade team, but had been taking private tennis lessons for 3 years. I played flute for my schools from 5th grade to 10th grade, where I participated in the marching band.
