My grandma once asked me, “When will you finally grow up?” at the ripe age of 21.

As an only child, I spent most of my time reading books and watching Youtubers. That’s how the internet became my playground. I started running fan accounts and making friends from literally across the world. That’s when I realize how powerful the internet can be, and it’s ability to connect and influence people.

I found that childlike joy of creativity through advertising, marketing, and stand up. Thinking of ways to take a problem and turn it into entertainment that makes others feel something.

In a way it’s how I’m able to keep the kid in me alive. So sorry to break it to you, Grandma… the answer is never.
