Who Am I?

Who Am I?

Who Am I? Who Am I?

I’ve always found it hard to explain who I am in just a few sentences because there’s too much to fit! So I thought i’d let some pictures do the talking instead.

A man wearing a Seattle Seahawks T-shirt and baseball cap sitting on a couch with two children, all smiling and showing excitement.

Some of my earliest memories revolve around sports. My dad coached baseball and basketball for over 20 years and was a huge Seahawks and Red Sox fan. My brother and I played just about every sport we could. I eventually focused on basketball and volleyball, playing both throughout high school. Although I don’t play sports anymore, it will always be a huge part of my life.

Music makes me feel alive. There’s nothing I love more than going to concerts and discovering new artists. My dream is to see Bruce Springsteen live someday because he was my dads favorite and his music makes me feel connected to him. I try to go to multiple concerts per year and I hope I can do that forever.

I grew up going to the lake all summer long. In 2016, my grandpa bought a lake house that quickly became my second home. It’s still my favorite place in the world and I spend most weekends in the summer there.

I started at the University of Oregon in 2021 which marked the beginning of the best four years of my life. I made countless memories and life long friends, and I’m forever grateful to U of O for shaping me into who I am today. Sco Ducks!

My friends and family are the most important people in the world. I don’t know what I’d do without them!

Fitness is something I can always count on to make me happy. I started lifting weights in eighth grade and it became one of my favorite hobbies, along with hiking and yoga. I’ve recently started the journey toward becoming a certified yoga teacher, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me!

This is Miley, my mom’s Sheepadoodle, and she’s the best dog ever. I grew up with all kinds of pets, from a rabbit, to snakes, to fish, and even a tree frog. Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and I hope to have many more in the future.

In 2023, I found my greatest passion of all… travel!

So far, I’ve been to 16 countries far and hope to travel to many more in the future. Here’s some pictures from my travels!
