“My mom is an architect by trade, but I think she's mostly a creative spirit. She's always making something, whether it's furniture or clothes or even even just moving furniture around the house. It's nothing fancy, it's just a sense of play and a sense of wanting to do something. I feel like that's the kind of creator that I am.”
