Long Distance Runner and Painter.

During the pandemic, I embraced long-distance running as a personal challenge, finding solace and strength in pushing my physical and mental limits. This newfound passion has not only improved my endurance but has also instilled in me the confidence to tackle difficult tasks head-on, knowing that I am capable of overcoming obstacles. Beyond running, I find joy and creative expression in painting portraits during my free time, where I immerse myself in capturing the essence and emotions of my subjects on canvas.
