I'm 22 and am the 2nd oldest of 9 siblings, all from the same parents. No, we are not Mormon... We are creating a basketball team.

I read a lot of books, firstly my Bible with mostly historical fiction or just straight historical books. Though I do enjoy the LampLighter books, almost anything by Rick Riordan, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and the Hobbit, Chronicles of Narnia, Sherlock Holmes and classics like that.

I participated in the home school speech and debate league, NCFCA, for 8 years. I have multiple 1-5 place awards from that, including a few from the 2 years I qualified to Nationals.

I also competed in chess tournaments for about 5-6 years. My most notable accomplishments from that include 3rd place in the 2011 OSCF Oregon state championship, 1st place 2011 blitz OSCF Oregon state championship, greatest rating increase in Oregon from 2010-2011, MVP of Southern Oregon, 1st place in Ashland regional qualifier 2008, #3 seed of all Sophomores and juniors in Oregon of 2011, 9th top rated of all Oregon Scholastic players 2011. I don't play much chess anymore, though I would like to get back into that someday...

I also have been involved with ballroom dancing! That includes Swing, Waltz, Viennese Waltz, Couple Hustle, Night Club 2 Step, Tango, Cha Cha, Foxtrot, and quite a few line dances.

I am a part of our local city Volleyball League. Mostly play in B division although I want to work up to A league. I started playing sand the beginning of Summer 2016. I would walk to work and after work to the park. I started going everyday pretty religiously. When winter came I joined our city league and we play indoor 2-3 times a week.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time I asked if I could go to the bathroom but I actually went to play on my GameBoy for a while.
