What question do you ask yourself most often while making work?
Where is craft services?
What’s one work of art that got you through an important moment in your life?

What grounds you and what invigorates you?
I am obsessed with Hell Followed with Us by Andrew Joseph White. I heavily suggest it, especially if you’re queer, which, if you’re reading this, you probably are.
What do you want to see more of in your industry?

In addition, I would like to see more individuality in terms of aesthetic and fashion choices.
When’s the last time you laughed hysterically?
I was playing Lifeweaver in Overwatch the other day, and I accidentally life-gripped my DPS into a Roadhog ult. He died. I also died. Life is good.
What would you be doing if you were not in your field?
