What is the most useful item in your workspace?
The most useful item is my iPad, I sketch, take notes, plan my week and journal on it. As someone who travels a lot, iPad is by far the most useful purchase for me.
How do you spark creativity?
I surround myself with random & "raw" things, like unfinished paintings or scribbles or a book about birds. These things help me draw unexpected inspiration from it - like colors, textures, shapes and more. I also watch a lot of movies which helps me learn layouts, colors and more. We creators should be surrounded by the most random objects/things which can help us get out of the box to think.
What does your typical day look like?
I wake up around 7 am and then go out for a walk or a run after hydrating myself. I typically like podcasts going on in my ear or just some high-energy music. Then after I am done with my shower & breakfast, I plan the day and start co-ordinating with my team, which can be all over the globe depending on the projects we are doing. Till 10:30 it's all Admin work and then the actual work and meetings start which can do all day long, sometimes till midnight if the client is based in a different timezone. I take a physical activity break like Tennis, swimming or just another walk in nature, to get myself out of the chair. I prefer closing the day off with some World of Warcraft or League of Legends, but right now I am binging a few shows, it gets my mind off of work and helps me sleep better for the next day to do this all over again.
