Reading, crafting, and listening and creating music.

I enjoy reading many different genres but my favorite would have to be fantasy and science-fiction as well as manga. I have enjoyed reading since I was a child and I still do to this day. 

As for crafting, I enjoy crocheting and embroidery mostly but, I also enjoy various small crafts as I get interested in them. 

Music is something I also have always enjoyed. I knew since I was little that I wanted to pursue something in music. I have played the piano since I was 12 years old, and I joined choir in sixth-grade and have been in it all the way through college. I learned the ukulele when I was 16 and have since moved on to different types of ukuleles. I dabble in some other instruments but have not mastered them just yet. 

Additional Information

I enjoy helping and interacting with people of all ages, and I am good with kids. I always try to give people patience and understanding and giving them the benefit of the doubt in situations. I treat people respectfully and avoid conflict but, when there is conflict, I do my best to de-escalate the situation and let both parties speak their grievances.

I try my best to be as helpful and kind as possible and to always be proficient in everything I am doing. I don't slack off when it comes to the things others as of me.

I like organization and keeping things tidy and uncluttered.
