What “breaking away from the expected” means to me
For me, “breaking away from the expected” means digging deep to truly understand an issue or how things function; it means constantly asking why to get to root causes that drive behavior.
The most valuable piece of advice I’ve ever received
Being yourself is the risk that always pays off.
My favorite motto
Let’s make better mistakes tomorrow.
My most significant role model
My grandfather combined curiosity, kindness, and humor in a way I aspire to match every day.
What energizes me the most
Helping people find meaningful solutions to problems.
Something people might not know about me
I can read text that is backward and upside down, but not both.
