What’s your favorite thing about living in Sacramento? 

I like living in Sacramento because it is not too far from my relatives, so I get to see them often. It is important to me that I spend as much time as I can with my family.

 

What’s your favorite food?

My favorite thing to eat is soup. I love Ramen!

 

What’s your ideal dream vacation?

My ideal dream vacation would be traveling to Mykonos, Greece. 

 

Who are the people in your life that inspire you the most and why? 

The people that inspire me the most are my parents. They are the most hardworking people that I know. They do not let the odds define them. No matter what challenges they may face, they stay strong and continue to push through and that is what motivates me. 

What’s a quality about yourself that you want everyone to know?

I would like everyone to know that I am a very understanding person who does not like to judge others.
