My name is Charlie Friedman, and I’m a 10th-grade student living in New York City. I play tennis, love to bake, and spend a lot of my time hanging out with friends and exploring everything the city has to offer. I’ve also developed a deep love for film — I enjoy watching and analyzing movies, especially how storytelling, cinematography, and music come together to create emotion and meaning. Outside the city, I love being outdoors, whether it’s sailing in the summer or skiing in the winter — both give me a sense of freedom and adventure that balances out my busy city life.
My love for Latin began completely by accident: I started taking it in 5th grade because it was required, but I quickly realized how fascinating it was. Over the years, Latin has become one of my favorite subjects, connecting my interests in language, history, and culture. Whether I’m out on the water, on the slopes, or watching a great film, I’m always looking to learn, create, and experience something new.

WHICH GREEK GOD ARE YOU
🌟 Results 🌟
🔴 Mostly Red → You are Aphrodite: Goddess of Beauty
You’re magnetic, expressive, and emotionally in tune. Like Aphrodite, you value connection, beauty, and passion. In mythology, she had immense influence: not through force, but through attraction and persuasion. This means you likely have strong social intelligence and a natural ability to draw people in. Your challenge (and growth!) is balancing emotion with stability.
🔵 Mostly Blue → You are Athena: Goddess of Wisdom
You’re thoughtful, strategic, and composed. Athena was known for wisdom, logic, and fairness—often helping heroes succeed through intelligence rather than strength. This suggests you’re someone people rely on for advice and clarity. Your strength is thinking before acting, though sometimes you may overthink or hold back emotionally.
🟢 Mostly Green → You are Artemis: God of Wilderness and Moon
You’re independent, bold, and free-spirited. Artemis valued autonomy and protected her own space fiercely. You likely don’t follow the crowd: you make your own path. That independence is powerful, though learning when to let others in can make your life even stronger.
🟡 Mostly Yellow → You are Zeus: King of All Gods + God of Leadership
You’re driven, confident, and naturally authoritative. Zeus ruled the gods and was associated with leadership, control, and big decisions. You probably take charge in situations and think big-picture. Your strength is leadership, but the best leaders also listen and share power.
