What are your favorite activities when you are not working?
I enjoy baking, reading and I am an avid classic-movies fan.
 
What advice would you give to someone who's considering finishing their degree, or starting for the first time as an adult?
Education is something no one can take away from you. It is something you strive for and once obtained it is yours to nurture and continues to grow.
 
If you could be on any reality TV show, which would you choose and why?
I would never want to be on a reality TV show. The concept was invented during a writers' strike and I have no idea why it continues today.
