Outside of mathematics, data science, and predictive modeling, I am a huge J.R.R. Tolkien and Star Wars fan. I have also studied martial arts since I was little, including Eskrima (a Filipino weapon art with heavy Spanish and Southeast Asian influences), Jun Fan martial arts (Bruce Lee's personal development of human combative), Boxing, Muay Thai, Silat, and a little Jiu Jitsu.

My primary teachers are Dan Inosanto, whom I have studied with for many years, and Blaise Loong, with whom I have been a private student for many years as well. I also train at Kron Gracie Jiu Jitsu Academy.
