Personal:
Favorite Taekwondo Athlete: Arlene Limas...Favorite Non-Taekwondo Athlete: Simone Biles...Who is your biggest inspiration?: Simone Giertz. She's an inventor and YouTuber known for making purposefully incompetent robots and she recently overcame brain cancer. I think it's amazing how she has followed her passion in a very male-dominated field even throughout her illness....Favorite Foods & Drinks: When my coach is watching: chicken and broccoli; when my coach is not watching: pizza....Favorite Book: The Iliad...Favorite TV Show: The Good Place...Favorite Movie: Legally Blonde...Favorite Band(s)/Singer: I listen to a lot of classic rock like Queen and the Beatles....Favorite/Inspirational Quotes: "Never let your fear decide your fate." - AWOLNATION...What is your proudest moment in Taekwondo to date?: My proudest moment by far in Taekwondo was when I kicked my master in the head for the first time in sparring. To this day he will claim that it never happened, but from then on he started wearing a helmet when we fought.
