Bio

Hi! I'm Theo, and I'm a Highschool Senior. I'm really passionate about Swimming, as I've been doing it since I was three. However, I also LOVE anything related to science, and am interested in pursuing Neuroscience as an Undergrad major, and then Psychiatry in Med school! I'm not all science though, I do love the arts as well! One of my many hobbies is creating blackout poetry, painting, and reading. I'm paying for college on my own, so I'm constantly putting work in to better myself and grow :)
