I'm an athlete at heart, although reading and writing have been passions of mine for most of my life. I also enjoy the great outdoors, the crisp of the Autumn season and the incredibly beautiful foliage within it. I love taking risks and learning new skills when others aren't willing to. I competed in cross-country and track & field in high school, and I'm currently a 3rd-degree black belt in Taekwondo and a blue belt in a mix of karate & kung fu. I'm also majoring in mechanical engineering and close to graduating!
Inspirations in my life include Steve Prefontaine (a running legend), Suji Kang (a 4-time world Taekwondo champion in poomsae), my parents who've helped me obtain a unique yet down-to-earth outlook on life, and those who come upon success even when chances are terribly slim or distant. These things motivate me to stay positive and keep moving forward when it's most important.
My preferable quotes:
"To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift" -Steve Prefontaine
"Be strong, you never know who you are inspiring" -M.R. Kologie
"Hard work: You can't get much done in life if you only work on the days when you feel good" -Jerry West
"All it takes is all you got" -Marc Davis
"Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard" -Tim Notke
"I do it because I can, I can because I want to, I want to because you said I couldn't" -Steve Prefontaine
"Get to where you should be, push it, and hang on" -my track & XC coach
Best reading & writing wishes ✍
