    Q&A
    What's the most useful business-related book you've ever read?

    Not a "business" book: however, in regards to assessing people's core intentions, subconscious motivations, and resulting application methods—all of which are components of business relationships—I would recommend "Denial of Death" by Ernest Becker.

    If money were not an issue, what would you be doing right now?

    Essentially, what I'm doing now: a bit of design, a bit of working on an album, a bit of music production. And perhaps a hell of a lot more travel. : )

    What words of advice would you give your younger self?

    Everything is malleable; you create your own reality.

    What's the most creative thing you've ever done?

    For nearly 2 years, I've been heavily immersing myself in all aspects, not just composition and arrangement, but engineering and production, of an album. It's creative in itself, but learning to balance that with life and work has been most creative.
