My interests

---

 Cooking is one of my favorite ways to unwind and connect. I love experimenting in the kitchen, whether it’s a perfectly seared steak, a flavorful chicken dish, or something new I’ve never tried before. While I enjoy cooking for myself, it’s even better when I can share a meal with someone else. I learned my way around the kitchen through a mix of work, friends, and family — and now it’s become one of my favorite ways to create and connect 

 Running is my reset button. It’s where I clear my head, push my limits, and feel completely in the moment. Whether it’s a quick run to start the day or a longer route to challenge myself, I love the mix of discipline and freedom it brings. For me, it’s not just about fitness — it’s about feeling energized, focused, and ready for whatever comes next. 

 Skateboarding has always been a thrill for me, but these days I’m especially into e‑skateboards and One wheels. I love the mix of speed, freedom, and the feeling of gliding through the world with nothing but open road ahead. I’ve collected a few over time, and each one has its own personality. For me, it’s part adventure, part escape, and always a good time. 

 Playing piano is one of my favorite creative outlets. I enjoy exploring a variety of styles — from classic melodies to modern hits — and there’s something satisfying about watching a song take shape under my fingers. Right now, I’m learning ‘Golden Hour,’ and I’m always up for a new challenge, so if you have a favorite song, I’d love for you to suggest my next one. 

 I’m a big fan of board games, especially ones that mix strategy, creativity, and a little friendly competition. Some of my favorites are Lords of Waterdeep, Civilization, Codenames, and Sagrada. I love games that get people thinking, laughing, and maybe plotting a little — and I’m always up for teaching a favorite or learning something new from someone else. 

 I enjoy video games as a way to unwind and connect. They’re a fun mix of challenge and creativity, and I’ve found they can even help with things like patience, teamwork, and problem‑solving. Whether it’s teaming up in a co‑op game or figuring things out solo, it’s a hobby that keeps me engaged and gives me something fun to share with someone else.
