As a child, I instinctively wrote and directed plays starring family and friends. My parents instilled in me that this was a hobby and I was to pursue something 'serious'. I became an engineer and computer programmer and worked in finance for about 10 years. In 2010 I left the industry to immerse myself in my creativity, rediscovering the sense of joy and satisfaction I had as a child.
