Thoughts about your generation? We are a curious, passionate and ambitious generation of dreamers that is addicted to technology.
Strongest Character Trait: Persistence. When I set a goal, I'll do everything I possibly can to achieve it. Some of the most successful artists I look up to aren't necessarily the most talented, but they're relentless in their pursuit of their vision, and they keep their eye on the prize. I've never had a “Plan B” for my career, and I think that's really served me well.
Important Life Lessons Learned: Integrity is everything. You're only as good as your word.
