Piano, Guitar, Photography, Sports

In my free time I enjoy learning music theory that enhances my piano and guitar skills. I also very much enjoy anything having to do with athletics and art. In 2020 during quarantine I started a small photography business called Sophia Hanks Photography and have been growing in my photography skills ever since. I have been able to keep it as a side hustle through my four years of college and it has allowed me to meet so many wonderful people and grow in my entrepreneurship.
