Due to the disruption caused by COVID-19, I focused on renovating my parents' beach house. For about two years, I worked almost every weekend from 8 AM to 5-6 PM. This project helped me develop a variety of skills.

During this time, I improved my ability to work well with others, ensuring smooth communication and coordination throughout the renovation. I also learned a lot about occupational health and safety (OHS) practices, making sure all tasks were done safely and correctly. This project not only boosted my practical skills but also strengthened my commitment to teamwork and thoroughness.

Since I was a child, I have loved collecting die-cast cars, a passion that stemmed from my overall love for cars. To this day, I continue to collect various die-cast car brands, including Hot Wheels. I also enjoy attending car shows and expos, where I can expand my knowledge of cars.

In addition to my interest in cars, I have always enjoyed following instructions, which led me to develop a strong interest in Lego. My enthusiasm for Lego grew to the point where I started creating my own designs using different sets. Over the years, I have designed a few original Lego creations, fulfilling a dream I had since I was a little kid.

Another hobby that greatly interests me is design. During high school, I excelled in product design, which led me to explore various fields of design. This year, I pursued these interests at RMIT Brunswick Campus. I have broadened my knowledge of design and enjoy creating digital car graphics using Adobe Illustrator.
