Value Outside Work
My favorite things to do as a kid were. . .
Reading, playing outdoors, and spending time with friends and family.
As a big kid, I like to. . .
Stay active, travel, practice and learn new languages (I’ve picked up three, besides English), and spend time with the same friends and family I’ve known for years.
One of the things I hope to do. . .
Become conversationally fluent in Japanese – the most challenging language I’m currently practicing.
