My extracurricular pursuits, such as regular cross-fitness, swimming, cycling, and playing badminton, alongside hobbies such as computer-aided designing and building electrical equipment, reflect my commitment to a well-rounded lifestyle.
Ever since middle school, I have been keen on learning about different aircraft, their electrical components, and the technical principles of flight.
