My name is Aidan Helfant. I am an upcoming freshman at Cornell University who likes doing videos on all sorts of things. I mainly like to stick to self-improvement, health, and fitness-related things but am not against changing my style to go with whatever I am feeling. I always want to make my content better so if there is ever anything that you want to point out or say about one of my videos be sure to tell me straight away. As always I hope you have a great day!
