I am driven to create, happily putting in the work and extra effort required. I bring positivity, humour, hard work, and high self-expectation to the workplace. When I’m not writing or watching TV and movies, I like to read, enjoy the outdoors, play sports, travel, hang out with my dog, cook, and explore culture.
