What I do for fun…

Outside of work, I’m a creative at heart and deeply connected to the outdoors.

I’m an artist and a nature enthusiast who recharges through active time outsideβ€”whether that’s hiking, camping, kayaking, mountain biking, or snowshoeing. Time outdoors gives me perspective, clarity, and energy, and it’s often where my best thinking happens.

Creatively, I enjoy photography, calligraphy, writing, and painting, along with interior design and home organization. These creative practices mirror how I approach my work: bringing structure, intention, and a strong sense of aesthetics to both systems and spaces. Yoga is also a regular part of my routine, grounding my leadership style in balance, focus, and presence.
