Growing up, I spent a lot of time with my great Grandma Mary. She taught me how to cook and bake, to sculpt with Play-Doh, to use construction paper to form worlds within our own, to sew, and to truly express myself through imagination and creativity. I inherited her passion to create; throughout my adolescence and college, I often turned to art and cooking to ground myself. Making things (whether it’s toys for my cats, jewelry, artwork, or food)—and observing others do the same—has always been very fulfilling for me. I’m grateful to have that constant flow of inspiration in my workplace and I’m lucky to be a part of it. Keep creating!
