Outside of teaching, I have a variety of hobbies that keep me balanced and energized. I love reading because it allows me to continually learn and discover new perspectives. Exploring cafes is a fun way for me to engage with my local community, find new environments to work or relax, and enjoy the simple pleasure of a good cup of coffee. Spending time with friends is important to me because it strengthens my connections and reminds me of the value of communication, something I also try to instill in my students. I also enjoy baking, which requires patience, precision, and creativity—skills I find parallel to teaching. It’s a rewarding process that, much like learning, involves trial and error but ultimately results in something fulfilling. Running, pilates, and swimming help me stay active and focused, giving me the mental and physical energy to stay on top of my work and maintain a healthy lifestyle. These activities keep me grounded, and I believe they also reflect the balance I encourage my students to find between their studies and personal interests.
