Hobbies and Interests
Outside of my education and work, I partake in calming activities that still challenge me and allow me to improve my skills. Some of the things I usually do are play guitar or analyze music; I began playing guitar when I was around twelve years old, and I still enjoy playing and practicing to this day. To improve my critical thinking, I try to solve at least five chess puzzles and play at least one game a day. I first fell in love with the game when I was in fifth grade, but I did not start taking it seriously until high school. Finally, I enjoy playing and watching sports.
