Jay is thriving while reflecting on his upbringing with his uncle, who has always been a father figure and mentor since his parents were mostly absent. Their strong bond, rooted in trust and shared experiences, continues to provide Jay with stability and reinforces the values of hard work and family. These days, Jay immerses himself in hobbies like photography, music, and skateboarding. His uncle first introduced him to photography, and now it serves as an outlet for him to capture moments in both nature and urban life. In the evenings, he plays guitar, using music as a therapeutic escape from daily stresses. Skateboarding remains a passion, offering him a sense of freedom and achievement. These activities not only enrich his life but also reinforce his identity and boost his confidence.

Jay really wants a Ninja Creami machine. He's excited about the idea of making his own ice cream, milkshakes, sorbets, and smoothie bowls at home with simple ingredients. He looks forward to trying different flavors by mixing in chocolate, cookies, or fresh fruit, and adding toppings like sprinkles or whipped cream. What he likes most is that he can be creative—he could make a rich dessert one day and something healthy the next. He also thinks it would be fun to share his creations with family and friends, turning regular evenings into ice cream parties.
