• When you were a kid, what did you want to be as a grown up?

  When I was a kid, I wanted to be an art teacher when I grew up! Years later, I have opened Minni (a community creative space offering art + design programs to children) but I am NOT a teacher at all (I get nervous at the very thought of it)! I do have an amazing team of instructors though.
