What do you most like to do to unwind?
Anything outdoors. Long walks, runs, or hikes with my pup usually always does the trick!
What is your guilty pleasure?
Reading fantasy novels. I love how the stories transport me to a different world.
What is the best advice you have ever been given?
Failure is an opportunity for improvement and time for reflection on what could be. Don’t be afraid to ask for feedback to turn failure into something positive.
Your coworkers can always count on you to . . .Jump into any project and lend a hand wherever it is needed.
One thing you’re willing to spend way too much on . . . Dog snuggles and drinking coffee. I intentionally wake up early to enjoy my morning coffee on the couch with my four-legged friend for an extended period.
