Outside of CS and DS, I enjoy weight-lifting and challenging myself. Recently, I have found a new passion for running— here’s a photo of my brothers and me after running the Lincoln, NE half marathon!
I also love anime! Some of my favorites include Jujutsu Kaisen, Cowboy Bebop, Hunter x Hunter, Attack on Titan, and Tokyo Ghoul.
