17 went by too fast and 18 looks intimidating.
Born and raised in Silicon Valley, CA, I have grown up in a business environment. With much support from my family, in 2009 I started up my own advertisement agency called DinoSoar Studios. I wanted to offer commercial video to those who couldn't afford it such as small businesses. This journey has really taught me to push myself outside of my comfort level. For example for the past two years I have attended national conventions selling my services and speaking in front of hundreds of people. Aside from business, I have many hobbies. I have been playing the drums since I was 10, playing my first show (junior high talent show) in front of 200+ people. A nerve-racking experience but never regrettable. I am not currently in a band, but that does not stop me from playing. Most of the time I will plug in some headphones and play to a variety of music, but I play at family events and other events in my church community. Another hobby I am interested in is motorcycles. I first started off riding dirt on a little 50cc Polaris Scrambler when I was 5. I quickly grew out of it and got a Honda trx 250 a few years later. Now as I continue to ride that, I also ride an 06 Ninja 650. Riding street has been a great experience and has made me a better driver. One thing I have always enjoyed is camping and hiking. I love the outdoors because it is spontaneous, you never know what you are going to see next. My dad and I do a lot of camping, tent and RV, and hiking. Since getting a Gopro for Christmas, it has been even more exciting because I can record our travels and have them for when I am older and can't do the things I can do now. To me, life is too short to dream. Sure, I have dreams, like traveling the world, but I can't stand just thinking about them. I want to plan it out and get as close as I can to my dreams because the sooner I enjoy them, the happier I am. Then as I get older, I can do it again but share the experience with others.
