Biography
I started martial arts in 2017. My goal was to learn self defense and be more active. By joining ATA, not only did I improve on those aspects, but I also became more confident and disciplined.
When I became a third degree, I became more interested in teaching martial arts. I wanted to teach, not only because I wanted to help others and share what I’ve learned through martial arts, but also because teaching would challenge me to deepen my own understanding and hone my skills.
Outside of martial arts, I’m an undergraduate student at The Ohio State University. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, photography, baking, and spending time with my friends and family.
