Private Life

When not at work, I cherish spending time with my family (mom of two, ages 4 and 7). I'm the handywoman at home, fixing everything from spare parts on the Dyson to repairing pipes—I enjoy working with my hands and thinking outside the box. In my alone time, I also enjoy running and swimming regularly.
