Hobbies
I am actively involved in my church and community. I love carpentry and design. I am passionate about sports, particularly running and Ultimate Frisbee. I like to read, mostly Christian books but also adventure series like Lord of the Rings and Ender's Game, or even the new Harper Lee novel Go Set a Watchman. I love to learn so in my free time I watch DIY/How To videos on Youtube, mostly carpentry and math videos. I appreciate good humor, "Two peanuts walk into a bar, one was assaulted."
