Q & A

ARE YOU A MORNING OR NIGHT PERSON?
Night person. I get all my creative ideas for writing or the video I am editing late at night.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FOOD OR MEAL?
My favorite meal is anything that involves Injera, which is a pancake-like flatbread with a slightly spongy texture, traditionally made of teff flour. It is a staple in my home country of Ethiopia and is central to the dining process, like bread or rice elsewhere.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SEASON?
Fall. I am biased, maybe because I am a fall baby, but I think fall has the best weather. Not too cold or hot. Plus, fall colors are beautiful.

IF YOU COULD TRAVEL ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD YOU GO?
Santorini, Greece. I have been to quite a few countries in the world, but never visited Santorini. The pictures I have seen are breathtaking.

WHAT DO YOU MOST LIKE TO DO ON YOUR DAY OFF?
I like to watch a nice movie, read a self-help book, and journal.

WORDS TO LIVE BY

Everything is figureoutable.
