Drawing and Painting
When I'm not knee-deep in professional endeavors, I'm probably splattered in paint or dusted in charcoal dust. Drawing and painting are not just hobbies for me, they're a part of who I am. On lazy weekends, I love whipping out my sketchbook and letting my imagination run wild, creating everything from whimsical landscapes to abstract splashes of color. Through this hobby, I've not only honed my creativity and focus, but I've also learned a thing or two about patience, detail-orientation, and the joy of seeing a project through to its end - skills that I believe are beneficial in any professional setting. Plus, there's always a conversation-starter hanging on my wall!
