1. I am the youngest of five; I have three brothers and 1 sister.

6. I also love photography, and hope to get my photography degree someday.
7. Another passion of mine is writing, and I would love to write at least one book in my life.
8. I have an iris coloboma in my right eye (the iris, and in my case, the pupil as well, didn't form properly, so my vision isn't that great in my right eye).
