I am really loving the badass co-captain of the US soccer team, Megan Rapinoe. She is exceptionally hard-working and talented, and stands up for what she believes.
David Hockney, because he’s so experimental and creative. He continually reinvents himself in a really delightful way.
I really admire Bonnie Raitt. She is a singer songwriter who has been doing what she has been doing for so many years and she recently won the song of the year Grammy for Just Like That. I loved the validation that creativity never stops, you can keep doing the things that you love.
My wife. As someone who is forever bored, I’m never bored with or of her.
Passionate, mum, green.
