Interests

I'm a passionate individual with a diverse range of interests. One of my greatest joys is Dungeons & Dragons — exercising creativity, strategic thinking, and collaborative problem-solving through immersive role-playing.

Beyond fantasy, I love building and fixing computers — assembling and optimizing systems is both a hobby and a testament to staying current with hardware advancements.

I'm also a sports enthusiast, especially Pittsburgh sports. Whether participating or watching, I believe sports foster teamwork, discipline, and a healthy competitive spirit.
