1.If you could make one rule that everyone in the world had to follow, what would it be?
My favorite sound is laughter. Laughter ripples through a room creating a joyful atmosphere. While working with the children at Friends of Kids With Cancer, I am reminded that laughter is the best medicine. Their laughter is music to my ears.
2.If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
I would like to be a polyglot, a person who has the ability to speak several languages. The ability to communicate on a global scale would be an amazing talent. Conversing with people of various cultures would allow me to help others communicate and work together.
3.When do you feel a child or teen becomes an adult?
My best habit is that I strive to be a life-long learner. I am constantly working to educate myself by watching, listening, asking, reading, or by trying new things. I welcome each day – opening my mind – to accept new challenges.
4.What do you feel you have learned in life that will be the most useful?
Yes, I make mistakes. Making mistakes allows me the opportunity to evaluate and improve my efforts. I try to look at mistakes as a positive experience the same way I try to improve other life skills. Mistakes are opportunities; we must recognize them as such.
5.What do you feel is the hardest job in the world and why?
My favorite food is my obasan’s (obasan is the title we gave my Japanese grandmother) special recipe for pot stickers. They are full of flavor and spices handed over from tradition. When by obasan makes pot stickers – the spices fly, the sauces are blended, and pure culinary magic takes place.
