Product design is... the integration of imagination and functionality to create objects that evoke joy and enhance the quality of people's lives.

A good product is… something you would miss if you lost it.

My dream job is be a product designer. Being a designer allows you to work on diverse projects, making each work day different than the last. In a collaborative design environment I also have the opportunity to constantly expand my knowledge, grow as a person, and make a positive impact on people's lives.
At home, curled up on my couch with a cup of tea.
A to Z Mysteries was by favorite books series as a child. I remember searching the school library shelves each week for an A to Z Mysteries book with a letter of the alphabet I had not read yet. My friends and I would also trade these books with each other, careful not to spoil the plots. The series was very popular in my school, so trying to read all 26 books was an adventure in itself.
My favorite place to read is at Prospect Park, here in Brooklyn. Reading on a picnic blanket at the park while surrounded by nature is a great escape from the chaos of the city. It is my go-to spot to unwind and enjoy a good book.
If I could wake up tomorrow as any book character, I would choose Matilda. Having telekinesis would be so useful in my day to day life with mundane tasks like cleaning and carrying groceries. Admittedly, being able to move objects with my mind would make me lazy, but my life would be much easier and I would have more time to do things I love.
