I have been weight training consistently for over six years. The effect that it has on not only my body but also my mind is profound. Weightlifting preps my mind for the day by establishing it with productive discipline in addition to feeding my body with the good endorphins it needs.

Photography
For the past 2-3 years, I have journaled every night before bed. This has benefited me in numerous ways. The first and most obvious one is that it counts as writing practice. However, it also allows me to track the productivity of my days and siphon abstract ideas from my mind into reality.

My father is a professional photographer, so naturally, I would have to pick up a thing or two. I've found that photography allows me to express my creativity in ways that writing cannot and it also inspires me to to develop story concepts.

Social Media
Social media has changed my life. I have been trying to grow a platform since my freshman year of high school. I think subconsciously, I have so much faith in it because I didn't have many mentors growing up, so influencers were the first poeple that really made a difference. Social media has allowed me to express my ideas and writing to the world.
Martial Arts

Martial arts raised me. I began my journey in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for a few years before transitioning to Kenpo Karate and training under Five Animal Kung Fu Master, Shihan Jason DeLucia. After years, I was awarded my brown belt. I then began dabbling in other forms of Martial Arts, such as American Wrestling, Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Boxing, and Krav Maga. Martial Arts taught me what it means to be strong and disciplined.
