I thrive in teamwork environments, particularly in sports or when leading large groups, as I am a confident individual who believes in myself. Staying active is important to me, and I enjoy surfing, running, and playing various sports. The ocean is one of my greatest passions, and I love spending time in nature, whether at the beach or exploring the outdoors.

Being a role model and leader is something I consistently aim for, even when no one is watching. I take great pride in building strong relationships and enjoy making connections with everyone I meet.
