CROSS COUNTRY
I have been running Cross Country for four years now and it has become a true passion of mine. I began my eighth grade year and having been improving my endurance and mileage every since. When I first started I struggled with regulating my breathing and pacing myself during practices and meets. I would most often have to walk while the rest of my teammates finished the workout. Since then, I have worked on bettering my personal records and continuing to develop various techniques that work best for me. It was only with the support of my coaches, past and present, that I have been able to achieve this progression.
ART
I have been making various forms of art really all of my life. From finger painting to school projects, creating art has been a massive creative outlet for me. I initially began with drawing and pencil sketches until I was able to develop my observational and proportional skills to begin painting. My various painting classes have helped me become versatile in a variety of different styles. While acrylic paint has always been my preferred medium, I have recently been experimenting with watercolor and lighter paint application. It was with years of tedious practice and the guidance of my art inspirations, I have been able become the growing artist I am today.
