I operate with a mindset of constant improvement.

We all have permission to be creative, tear things down and build them back better. On our team, it keeps things new and helps us to continually get more effective. 

When I started my career, I was afraid to be vulnerable.

I didn’t want to come off as inexperienced or unknowledgeable. But showing that vulnerability, asking questions, being humble – that’s the best way to build trust with your peers and grow as a professional. 

Every day, a voice is asking you, “Is this a good day or a bad day?”

The happiest people are the ones that choose “good day” as much as possible. 

Small talk cheat sheet:

Collegiate wrestling (Go Gophers!), Philadelphia sports teams, aviation, bulletproof coffee, kettlebell workouts.
