I would love to continue my design journey through various aspects of the creative field. My dream job, however, is to be an exhibition and/or toy designer. In regards to exhibition design, I am constantly fascinated by how elements in an environment each have a specific role but also come together to create a certain experience for individuals in the space. At the same time, I enjoy the whimsical nature that comes with designing toys. The process reminds me not to forget the excitement and possibilities that come from play as a child.

I come up with my best ideas during my daily commute on the subway.

My favorite book was Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes. I remember frequently reaching for it and as a child, it reminded me to value the qualities that make me unique as well as those in people around me.
-
My favorite place to read is on a bench at South Street Seaport Pier 17. It is a nostalgic place for me and puts me at ease whenever I read or simply take in my surroundings there.

I would be Matilda Wormwood from the novel Matilda by Roald Dahl. Despite her extreme intelligence and discovery of her telekinetic powers, Matilda remained humble about her abilities and took good care of those around her.
