What is your favorite part about your job?
I am surrounded by an amazing team who challenge me as we continue to grow together.
What’s something that most people don’t know about you?
I’m a lefty and enjoy literature and writing. My word this year is “create” whether that be an essay, a watercolor, a positive attitude, or a new process. Humans were designed to create things, not over-consume.
What do you do outside of work? family? hobbies?
Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, kayaking, reading non-fiction and writing. I have a Siberian Husky named Katya who typically joins me on hikes and when kayaking.
What three items would you take with you to a deserted island? (excluding, food, water, & shelter)
Swiss army knife, fishing net, first aid kit
