I have swum for my four years in high school and have at college with RIT. My events tended to be long distance freestyle, often the 500 and 1000 yard events. I also did sprints from time to time but only in relays. In November of 1999 I had an accident in which I hyperextended my knee. I was unable to walk well for months and was forced to quit swimming that year. I still enjoy the water and swim for exercise when I get a chance. Currently I volunteer at the YMCA in Ithaca as an assistant coach. I still wish I could swim on a team, but I enjoy coaching too.

I love art in any form. I have done some of my own, but have very little education in the arts. I have a sketchbook that I carry with me, which often makes people in the computer science and information technology classes I take look at me oddly. There are several places here in Rochester that I like to visit that have both artwork and artists, and try and get out whenever I can to see something new.
