Q&A

What's your hidden talent?

I can draw abstract faces with both of my hands at the same time.

Where do you find inspiration?

Inspiration is everywhere. It's less about where and more about how. I find it through looking, smelling, touching, and being present in the moment.

If I wasn't an architect, I'd probably be...

Perhaps a yoga instructor, a vet, or a painter.
