The right formula of ambition and contentment.

What is your most prized possession?

It's hard to choose. From among the intangible ones, I think the love my friends and family have for me tops the list. From among the palpable ones, I think it would be my little book of poems.

If you were granted a wish what would it be?

An unlimited supply of free nachos and cheese dip! Or maybe I'd wish that women didn't have any body hair. Waxing is a real pain.

Your biggest fear?

Fear itself. It's such a powerful emotion, it has the ability to make you or break you.

What does happiness mean to you?

Blowing bubbles in an empty beach with my feet embedded in the warm sand.

If you could, what would you undo?

Donald Trump's victory in the elections.

What is your most prized possession?

My mother’s love and the friendship we share.

If you were granted a wish what would it be?

To be able to teletransport to anywhere I like, whenever I want and take anyone I love with me.

Your biggest fear?

Being uncertain about what the future holds especially if it’s about losing someone I love.

What does happiness mean to you?

Making my parents proud and happy.

If you could, what would you undo?

Absolutely nothing! Because I believe my choices and experiences have shaped me to become what I am today.
