Hobbies

- Volunteering and community involvement

I offered my service to youths as a peer educator for ten years. During this period, I learnt the true meaning of service to humanity and what it means to truly be selfless with respect to helping others over come challenges. Serving as a role model and becoming a true friend to the youth really encouraged me to be a better person and to strive each day for excellence in all aspects of my life. It truly served a greater purpose in assisting me to grow tremendously as an individual.


- Blogging

The power of expressing my views on various topics has allowed me to tap into coping with various aspects of life and even sharing my life experiences from which other persons can either learn from or offer new insights into a particular thing. I sincerely think that using one's power of expression in this way can be very educational to others and even one's self.
- Learning languages I believe that being versed in several languages is an important skill in communicating throughout one's life. Hence, I appreciate the concept of bridging the gaps between various cultures with respect to learning the modern tongue native to specific countries. Thus far, basic Spanish has been a language that I have learnt to use to communicate and one which I find myself being open to mastering.

- Travel

Curiosity, courage, and self-organization are the words that first come to mind when i think about my passion for exploring the world. It awakens my desire for learning about new cultures and understanding various peoples of the world and how they socialize within their unique environments.
