Q&A
What are your hobbies or interests?
I am really into theater. I am part of an amateur theater group, and we are currently working on a play. I love the collaborative and playful environment that theater fosters. I need to get better at learning my lines, though
Who inspires you the most and why?
Phoebe Waller-Bridge. She is a female comedian, waiter, actress, and producer. There are not enough job titles to accurately describe her. Her courage, her oriniality, and her honesty in her writing are pure gold. She makes me feel seen and encourages me to be my true self no matter what
If you could live in a book, TV show, or movie, what would it be?
HBO’s Westworld for sure. But I would want to be a host in Season 3. Probably Dolores’ sidekick
