Along with my school work and activities, I am passionate about sports, movies, and fashion. I practically play every sport and am open to any new activities. At UCONN recreation, I am team captain of my flag football, volleyball, and basketball teams. Also, I attend many fashion shows that the University organizes. I believe that these hobbies exemplify my competitive, team-work, and open-minded personality.
