Photography - This allows me to get out in the community at local events and festivals. I love that my photography is versatile in bringing value to businesses, professionals, and everyone I meet. My hope is that people recognize me at events and know that they'll have great memories to share.
Woodworking - Something I really took to during the pandemic. It has become a valuable skill requiring attention to detail and planning. When I was younger, I made wooden carved wall clocks, and now I make sheds for neighbors and friends.
Cooking - It's mainly due to my mother and heritage, but it is the best way to connect with absolutely anyone. When in a new place learn the history behind how the eat, and you're guaranteed to make great connections. At least, that's what I've learned. Also, try your best to learn the language.
Paintball - I hesitated to put this hobby, but I now understand the importance of the balance in my life it provides. We all need an outlet for our characteristics that don't entirely translate to our professional lives, and this one gives me that space. It's also a great excuse to travel, meet new people, and camp with friends.
