If I had to describe myself in just one word, I would choose "joyful" because I feel joyful to be alive and delighted to do what I am doing. I am optimistic because I have found a profession where I can constantly learn new things. I am joyful that I dipped my toes into the sea of design and found the craft of jewelry after swimming a bit in fashion design, interior design, and product design. Finding joy in everything is a choice I have made for myself in times of hardship, and like any other choice, it can be challenging to maintain. But it is worth it; it illuminates your path, and all the difficulties you encounter become easier to bear and manage.
