| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | Representing my state and team in the Baseball Little League tournament when I was 12. This experience as a kid was something that I never expected to achieve because as a 12-year-old traveling with my baseball team and just being with my friends outside of a school setting kind of like living together was really fun. It was also great because we were the runner-up team that year. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I closely identify with my two brothers. Even though we are half-brothers and live in different states, we stay in touch almost every day and share very similar interests. We really bonded when I left my country, and they stayed behind. We used to play on the computer, and we also used to compete on which of our favorite sports team will win and the loser had to do a funny stunt. I almost never lost. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | Commitment, I really admire when someone says they will do something, and they actually do it. Honesty is another one, a big thing for me is people that can tell me how things are no matter how harsh the news is. Finally, just being nice, being gentle, and joyful always comes a long way. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | On my 21st birthday I went to the casino with my friends for the first time and we saw a guy drunk playing all his money and the funny part was that he was really crazy shouting and making dumb plays but somehow was winning. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I would love to travel to Japan and China I just want to experience the ambiance and seeing videos of cities like Tokyo and Hong Kong at night makes me just want to stop and stare. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | My sports card collection that my father gave to me. This collection really has a lot of sentimental and monetary value, and I think that passing this on is the right thing to do and this is what my grandpa would have wanted. I would also pass on knowledge about solidarity and how to treat people no matter how they treat you. |
