What makes you happiest outside of work?
Cooking and spending quality time with my partner.
Early bird or night owl?
Both (architecture school ruined my sleep schedule)
If you weren’t doing this, what would your alternate career be?
I would still be somewhere in the building industry. I have always loved understanding how things go together, whether that means building it, demolishing it, or drafting it.
