Inspiration
Sunshine on snow; calling my parents; singing with my children; my partner; everyone finding joy in mourning during this pandemic.
Milestone
I wrote/directed my first music video in a new city (Denver) with an all new crew, no budget, no time, two kids, no childcare, no producer, and lots of love for my song "Cute" with Kevin Knapp.
Superpower
I'm really good at "name that tune!" Oh and crying when I'm happy.
Beloved Book
The Parable of The Sower by Octavia Butler - because they are instructions on how to thrive and survive from a goddess (and the main character "Lauren" reminds me of my daughters.)
Dream Destination
Anywhere quiet where I can sleep for 8 hours straight without someone snoring or climbing on me.

Seeing the level of creativity that the quarantine lifestyle has brought out of people. I'm constantly impressed by what people are creating, cooking, and learning.
Milestone
Growing our live Unsent show from a small living room gathering to a multi-city sold out event in a year.

Pretending to be on phone calls in public to avoid talking to people.
