— Who is your favorite entertainer?
My favorite entertainer is Alex Honnold because he’s the main person that inspired me to start rock climbing. Watching him free solo is very interesting because of the confidence it takes to do it.

— What’s a story your family/friends like to tell about you?
My family likes to tell the story about how when me and my brothers were younger, my brothers were jumping off of the stairs at my house onto the couch while I was trying to get myself to jump off a small curb. I finally did it and was really excited about it.

— An issue or cause you are passionate about:
I’m very passionate about deforestation and climate change because I’ve been studying either forestry or environmental science in college and university. I enjoy learning about different ways to prevent climate change and deforestation because it is something I’m very passionate about.
