Interview
I spent wonderful afternoon with Advisor Danny who interviewed me last week! We talked about where I came from, what inspires me to write/play music, such as Forest Bathing while we walked around Deer Lake in Burnaby BC Canada. There were some charming surprises during the walk. Although it was my first time doing this kind of interview on camera,Danny made me feel very comfortable with his professional way and some laughter. I really enjoyed it and appreciate this opportunity. Thank you very much Danny!
