Questions & Answers
How do you make people laugh?
By telling funny jokes I have heard, but if that doesn't work, then telling an extremely overdramatic version of a story or event usually does the trick!
If you were a tool or piece of equipment, what would you be and why?
I would be a Swiss Army Knife. Like a Swiss Army Knife, I bring a variety of skills to the table and am versatile and adaptable. I value precision and effectiveness, much like a tool that is designed to get the job done quickly and well. I consider myself to be a problem solver, just like the ultimate problem solving tool, ready for any situation. Lastly, Swiss Army Knives have evolved over time, adding in new attachments, just as I have continued to develop new skills and interests.
What's your favorite productivity hack or time-saving trick?
My favorite productivity hack is writing down daily to-do lists. I find that keeping my priorities written down helps me to keep track of them, and allows me to identify what should be prioritized.
