Smiling Often

It’s 8 p.m. on a Wednesday night and the project is nowhere near done for the big design review the next morning. Most designers have certainly been in this situation at some point. What makes me keep pushing myself and my work to the next level is to always be light hearted and have fun with the process for any given challenge. Whether it’s late at night or early morning, I will always have a child like curiosity and playfulness when approaching any design problem. I am a true believer of the value of finding the right balance of serious and goofy mentality that will enable a healthy team morale.

 
 

Finding Balance

Just like Newton’s law of equilibrium, I believe in applying as much balance to all of the different forces in my life. In this case, I try to practice healthy dose of work-life balance. This enables me to maintain an easy going attitude at any given time in the work environment. This balance involves my passion for travel, specifically being in nature. In addition I have a true obsession for connecting to people and their stories through food.
