What you’ll find here
Creating this website, I wanted to honestly dump everything I find interesting into one common place so here it is:
Photos
While I’m not huge on photography, I do love taking pictures of the sky (mainly stars) and airplanes, both commercial/personal planes and military jets. All photos on the whole website were taken by me unless otherwise cited.
Sports
I’ve played sports almost my entire life: soccer, field hockey, lacrosse, rock climbing and track. Along with playing, I watch all of these sports plus ice hockey, football, rugby, and many more.
Animals
Elephants have always been my favourite and I used to spend hours at the zoo with my mom just standing and staring at the elephants. On top of elephants, I really like dogs, axolotls, bumblebees, capybaras, and so many more animals.
Marvel and Norse Mythology
Marvel is one of the many things I geek out over. With it being the whole theme of my bedroom to going to Comic Con for my birthday dressed as Wanda and Sylvie, it’s truly a constant in my life throughout the years. Tied to Marvel, Norse Mythology has interested me in the last couple years with me writing a whole research paper on How Norse Mythology Has Been Used in Film and Literature.
Space and Aviation
Ever since I was little, I’ve said I wanted to be an astronaut. I love everything to do with space and growing up I’ve been able to see space museums, rocket launches, and Instagram lives of interviews with astronauts. As for aviation, I love airplanes so much. Growing up near the largest Naval Station in the world I have always been surrounded by airplanes.
Languages
While I took multiple years of speech classes and still mispronounce and struggle with many words in English (the only language I’m currently fluent in), I love learning other languages. Some languages I’ve started learning are Arabic, Russian, and Spanish, just to name three of the many.
Research
From Norse Mythology to the Palestinian/Israeli Conflicts, I have researched so many different topics both for school and for my own curiosity. I truly love during research papers because I get to learn so many new things, some I probably wouldn’t have thought about researching before.
International Affairs
During high school I did Model UN for two years in a row in the Disarmament and International Security Committee. The first year (2023) I was representing the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and the second year (2024) I was representing the State of Israel. After the extensive research I had to do those years, I realized how much I truly liked international affairs and also it has opened me up to world of politics in general. I plan to major in Political Science and go to law school.
History
While I always thought I hated history, turns out I just didn’t like how it was taught to me. Since elementary school there’s been certain topics in history that I’ve researched on my own time extensively, I also got more into history during high school when I had a teacher I really liked.
Criminal Justice
From police officer to medical examiner to FBI agent, I’ve always wanted to do something within criminal justice and the law. Now I plan to go to law school in hopes of becoming a lawyer.
Brain Injury Education
I’ve had three concussions and have written multiple essays and done pages of research on TBI’s and their effects. I’ve written a letter to the governor of Virginia and have brought up the issue of the lack of TBI education to a school board member in Virginia Beach.
Travel
With my family I have traveled all around the country but want to travel more. During my freshman year of college, I am spending spring break in Vienna, Austria and Budapest, Hungary.
