Interests
One of my hobbies when I was younger included Tae-Kwondo. I became a member of Bytomic Tae-Kwondo at 5 years old for just over a decade and made my way up through the ranks to become a First Dan black belt in 2014. I was one of the youngest in the company to reach this position at the time and held it for 4 years. I assisted my coach in teaching classes and was relied upon to run the warmup as well as running training drills for the lower grades whilst my coach was teaching the higher grades. I was expected to teach self-defence, set sparring, and pattern work. This experience taught me many essential skills for a workplace especially discipline, communication, and leadership. I was also a county tennis champion at my club in Buckinghamshire, I won a doubles tournament. It was a big achievement for me as I started playing tennis at an early age and never expected to reach that level of skill. It taught me how to work as a team and communication.
