WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHEN YOU'RE NOT WORKING?
It's a bit of a blurred line for me, I don't look at my days as either work or leisure; I kind of just do life. When I'm not behind the camera or computer however I love going out for dinner, spending time with family (I have 13 nephews and nieces!), catching a film or having a boogie on the dance floor! I also have a profound love for energetics, neuroscience and spirituality ~ so I always make sure I weave these practices and learnings into my day.
FUN FACT:
I'm ampedexrious.
