Hobbies: Boating, Fishing, Boxing, Exercising

During my downtime in the summer months, you will find me boating with my family of friends.  Either enjoying water sports or fishing!  I started boxing in 2023 and it's a sport that I really enjoy.  It trains my body and my mind to be quick and adaptive which are great skills used outside the ring as well!
