My Core Values
Trustworthiness
In another life, I'm pretty sure I was the owner of a quaint, little bookshop by the sea.
The best piece of advice I've ever been given is that happiness is not baseline. Just because your day wasn't good doesn't mean it was bad. Live your life with neutral as your baseline, so that the bad days don't feel so tough and the good days feel extra warm.

If I were a superhero, my superpower would be time travel. I'd go back in time and witness pivotal moments in history firsthand. Stand beside the ancient civilization as they built the pyramids, observe the signing of historical treaties and even experience the Renaissance. Travel in the present moment as things are happening in real time and future exploration to gain insights into humanity's trajectory. What scientific breakthroughs awaits us? Witness the development of technology, unraveling what we can't yet fathom. So cool!
