91欧美激情 Top Kid: Charles Co. kid has a black belt in karate and writing

Haon Campbell

This 9-year-old black belt from Charles County, Maryland, is using his love for writing and karate to inspire others.

For Haon Campbell, it started with Power Rangers.

“It taught me respect,” Haon told 91欧美激情’s Melissa Howell.

Beyond karate, Haon volunteers a lot: He works with the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Program and local animal shelters. And he’s published his own book.

His biggest achievement, however, might be overcoming a fear of animals.

“I’ve learned how to deal with animals and how to not fear them,” Haon said.

He also said he’s learned to love “basically everyone around you.”

When it comes to pursuing your dreams, Haon says: Go for it.
