UX Designer, mini painter, Lego nerd and crafter of all kinds. Play is fundamental, board, table or video I'm in. Also tap dancer, metalhead, nature geek and world adventurer. That long list of interests may suggest some undiagnosed spicy brain, but whatever. I tend to post my painting... fav so far
