I have ADHD
Realizing I had ADHD in 2020 was a game-changer. It wasn't just a diagnosis; it was a beacon of understanding that shed light on so many aspects of my life. Suddenly, things that were once confusing or challenging made sense. It was like discovering a roadmap that explained why certain things were harder for me than others.
This revelation brought clarity to my struggles and provided a fresh perspective. It wasn't just about acknowledging difficulties; it was about embracing the opportunity for growth and self-awareness. Understanding my ADHD has empowered me to find new strategies and approaches that play to my strengths. It's like unlocking a toolbox filled with unique ways to navigate life more effectively. Overall, this journey has been about embracing who I am and discovering the incredible potential within myself.
It is my superpower and I aim to harness its strengths—such as Adaptability, Divergent thinking, and Hyperfocus—to fuel Dynamic creativity. (See what I did there?)

Woodworking
My passion for woodworking sprouted from my love for DIY culture and crafting things on my own. Upon moving into my current home, I craved a dedicated space for woodworking projects—an absence I resolved by constructing my own workshop. Without any prior construction background, I relied solely on YouTube tutorials and online guides for each stage of the process. Additionally, I channel my woodworking abilities into crafting meaningful gifts, earning praise for being 'thoughtful with wood.'

Dog training
I've always felt a deep connection with dogs and harbored a profound love for them. During a career gap while I was seeking a new design position, I found myself drawn into the world of dog training. Volunteering at a local training center opened my eyes to the rewarding challenge of problem-solving in dog training. Even now, I continue to volunteer occasionally with the owner of the training company and regularly attend her bi-weekly classes. I'm committed to expanding my expertise by participating in dog training seminars, all in pursuit of becoming the best possible dog owner I can be.
Bike Polo
In 2009, I discovered this unique sport, and it captured my heart instantly—it blended elements of cycling and hockey, two of my passions. Playing it is an absolute blast, but what truly keeps me hooked is the incredible community it has fostered. Some of my closest friendships have blossomed through traveling to tournaments for this sport. No matter where I go, be it a major city anywhere in the world, there's always a warm and welcoming bike polo community. Frankly, I can't imagine my life without this amazing group of people.
Backpacking
Exploring through hiking and backpacking is my passion, and one of the regions I adore delving into is the Southwest. Its landscapes are like stepping into another realm, with surreal rock formations and vast expanses that feel otherworldly.
Everywhere I venture, whether it's the lush forests, rugged mountains, or serene trails, holds its own unique charm and allure. Hiking and backpacking for me are about uncovering the hidden gems of nature, that thrilling moment when you stumble upon a breathtaking vista or discover a hidden waterfall. It's the joy of the journey, the connection with the outdoors, and the endless discoveries that keep me coming back for more, no matter where I roam.
