About the writer

 

Tell me about yourself. It's a question that comes up in interviews, introductions, life. I never know exactly what to say because I know everything about myself already. Being a writer is only a snapshot of who I am. Besides being a writer, I'm a student, nature lover, traveller, and amateur photographer. 

 

I enjoy writing because it allows me to free my thoughts and allow other people into my world. I like the feeling of my pen hitting the paper and the sound of the keys clacking on the keyboard.

 

I'm a student at the University of Michigan studying business at the Ross School of Business. I chose to study business because I see it as a universal connector since everybody in the world places an importance on it.

 

I like spending summer days on the beach or biking through forest trails because nature calms my mind. A great part of nature is water because it's peaceful when in the form of a still body of water like a lake. Its sounds are calming when the water flows from one point to another like in a river.

 

By travelling, I can see different landmarks and eat different types of cuisines. I can experience a change of scenery while also appreciating the diversity that the world has to offer.

 

I like taking photos because they help me remember certain moments. These moments range from significant to insignificant. It's also another way for me to be creative because there are different angles and aesthetic choices I can make.

 

These are all snapshots of me.
