About Me

Hi. I'm Thomas.
I am a 16 year old Para-triathlete, (TRI-4 division, (arm impairments) clever, huh?) from Southern California,  and am a member of the CAF Elite Paratriathlon Team. The link is really long, so I'm putting it at the bottom of the page.                   
       
It is a honor to be a member of this team and to share time and experiences with my awesome teammates. As a member of this team, the main goal is for me to compete at the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio. At the present I am getting ready for world championships in London....they are next week. Yikes!

Other than that, I am a regular teenaged boy...not;)
I am a Catholic, fun-loving homeschooler and I'm proud of it. I know you're going like, what? How on earth do "Catholic" and "homeschooler" go with "fun-loving?" Well, to tell you the truth, these conditions are not irreconcilable. We Catholic homeschoolers (well, most of us) have a ton of fun, its just not the kind of "fun" that gets you in trouble with the law, your parents, and ultimately yourself...well, I'm getting off topic, *note, "ramblings of...", so get used to it :D Anyway, back to about me;)

I absolutely love (in no particular order) sports, (pretty much all of them, but especially hockey and
football) drama, good literature, the outdoors, good food, unhealthy food, (sadly, I had to give that up) hanging with my friends, and commas.

I absolutely hate mornings, early morning workouts, getting sick and/or injured, bad food, not being able to eat unhealthy food, the Yankees, and English teachers...not really, I know they are doing their job....but they exterminate my poor commas:( There. Now you've seen my weird homeschooler side!

Well, whether you like it or not, you now know about me.
Take care.
