What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?

When you doubt yourself, remember that even the most accomplished people don’t have the answers to every question. It’s your response to the situation that is most important.

What’s the most unusual travel experience you had?

I’ve been fortunate to travel extensively for both work and pleasure, creating many special memories. One standout experience was being selected as the courier for seven artworks from the National Museum of Wildlife Art to an institution in Frankfurt, Germany. My job was to safeguard the art and look out for any issues that might damage the pieces. This journey involved traveling on a tractor trailer from Jackson to Los Angeles overnight and then flying on a cargo plane with only three other passengers to Frankfurt. It was a great privilege, and I hope to return to Germany again soon.
