Creativity is my superpower—it's an unstoppable force that has shaped every aspect of who I am. I honestly don't know how to turn it off (not that I'd ever want to!). To give you a glimpse of just how deeply this runs, here’s a favorite story from my childhood: When I was four, a pilot announced over the loudspeaker that it was whale season, and the first person to spot a whale would win a prize. While everyone else fixated on the ocean, my creative instincts kicked into high gear. I grabbed the airsickness bag from the seat pocket in front of me, drew a whale on it, and claimed the prize. My young mind couldn’t understand why no one else thought to do this, but I basked in my victory—and my prize, a pillowcase filled with peanuts, lasted so long it might as well have been eternal (though I’m sure those peanuts had long since expired).

Creativity isn’t just something I apply at work—it’s my essence, always on and always flowing. Whether I’m brainstorming, making something for the sheer fun of it, or tackling an unexpected challenge, my imagination is limitless. So, in the spirit of embracing my superpower, I wanted to share a few things I’ve created outside of work. These pieces weren’t about deadlines or expectations—they were made purely for the joy of creation, because that’s where my power truly shines.
