Interests

Apart from being a software engineer, I enjoy getting in some physical exercise whether that be playing tennis, pickleball, volleyball, going to the gym for a workout or doing mixed martial arts. During the warmer months, I enjoy going out to the beach, riding jet skis, and kayaking.

When forced indoors, I enjoy playing video games, reading and watching TV shows. I do love battle of the wits, action and adventure kinds of television shows and movies. I am a big foodie and enjoy spending time trying out new food spots.
