About
I have lived in a coastal city my entire life, and I am passionate for this type of ecosystem and will work to protect it. I love animals, and through the field of Marine Biology, I can continue this study which also coincides with my hobbies. I am the team captain for both my high school's club water polo and swim teams. I love to surf, take photos of wildlife and landscapes, draw, paint, skateboard, and snowboard. I am always ready to get my hands dirty and love to seek new adventures either in school, or in nature.
