Hobbies and Interests

I like to make things out of dirt. Creating art out of clay gives me pleasure. I love to travel, hike, practice yoga, and read in my spare time.

Defining Moment in My Education

As a refugee student, my teachers helped me transition to a new culture, monitored my progress and mentored me to realize my dream. They taught me to question things I see, be curious, and stay informed. My teachers and I were partners in my education.
