Personal Statement
As an avid cyclist and runner, I am a passionate advocate for the safety of every individual especially children who need to learn how to safely conduct themselves outdoors with any micromobility device, or as a pedestrian utilizing sidewalks and crosswalks as a method of transportation. I believe that by collaborating with likeminded educators and providing proper safety classes, it inspires awareness and proper etiquette to avoid any unintended injury.
