Interests &
Hobbies
As a creative, I love activities and hobbies that allow me to express myself. I've taken up painting, and although I'm no Pablo Picasso, I enjoy taking the time to sit, unwind, and express my thoughts on the canvas. I also enjoy a good book. Next up on my list? Michelle Obama's The Light We Carry. And while knitting has been on my to-do list for a while, it's still a top priority. My mom is an expert, so I'm hoping to sit with her soon to learn this craft.
