What is one of your favorite quotes?
"Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back. That's part of what it means to be alive. But inside our heads...there's a little room where we store those memories. A room like the stacks in this library. And to understand the workings of our own heart we have to keep on making new reference cards. We have to dust things off every once in a while, let in fresh air, change the water in the flower vases. In other words, you'll live forever in your own private library." – Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
If you could have any super power what would it be and why?
I would want to be able to conjure picture-perfect images within my mind and use them to express myself artistically more accurately and articulate my ideas to others.
What movie or novel character do you most identify with?
Whenever I find myself faced with self-doubt, I try to channel Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks. I find myself inspired by his warm, down-to-earth demeanor paired with his ability to accept what lies beyond his own perception.
What new technology will transform the future?
Nanomachines
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?
I'd love to vacation in Japan someday. I'm deeply fascinated with both its rich culture and the incredible amount of creativity that stemmed from its various art scenes.
