Interests
I love the outdoors during all seasons, especially nature hikes. Other pleasures and distractions include a
love for baking and cake decorating. I’m artistically inclined, so I enjoy painting nature scenes with
different mediums such as watercolour and oils. I also have developed an appreciation for the art of Film
Noir since childhood.
