About Me

Outside of school and work, I enjoy participating in outdoor activities such as hiking and beach volleyball. I love travelling to other countries and learning about their cultures. Some of my favourite cities visited include Barcelona, Paris and Portofino. This summer I travelled back to Barcelona to participate in a summer exchange program, where I took Spanish and International Marketing courses.
