"I speak a few languages, primarily English, French, and Spanish. I belong to a group where I get together with others who speak French and Spanish as a second language to keep our skills sharp. I also watch a lot of Spanish and French cinema and read books in those languages."

"One of my favorite hobbies is flying drones and filming short films with them. I have a YouTube channel where I post them - places out in nature or old ruins, that sort of thing. I also take full advantage of the NAV Drone app when using it. A brilliant tool and a stroke of genius on the part of NAV CANADA to ensure airspace controlled is controlled while educating the public on our service."

My biggest hobby is playing tabletop roleplaying games, I'm sure you've heard of Dungeons and Dragons. As a Gamemaster I'm constantly designing encounters that facilitate a problem-solving mindset in both myself and my players, as well as when I'm doing world building such as designing a town or fleshing out characters it really gets my creative juices flowing.
I'm also into all things sci-fi and fantasy such as books, I'm an avid reader.

I do have a few hobbies. I enjoy health and wellness. I go to the gym 4 days a week and make sure to have healthy meals and snacks readily available for myself and my family. We are avid campers and enjoy being outdoors as much as we can through the warmer months. I also like to feed my creative side and design jewelry.
