Q.What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?A.There are a lot of things that are rewarding. It’s providing great service for a customer, and being asked to take on their next project. It’s solving a really challenging problem. It’s the opportunity to help people thrive in the things we create. It’s using guidelines to come up with something creative. Q.Who or what inspires you?A.People who are really good at delivering a message are inspiring. People who consistently provide great work, with little to no acknowledgement or reward. A project that you know wouldn’t have been as good if our team hadn’t been involved. Really thoughtful creative solutions. People who dedicate time to finding the best solution, not just the easiest or the quickest.
Q.What does 'Improving Life' mean to you?A.I take 'Improving Life' on as a challenge to make decisions that will improve the lives of other people. No matter if they are employees, bosses, customers, or a contact with no opportunity to be a prospective client, whomever, it is my job to find ways to improve their lives.
