What do you enjoy most about being in your current role?
I think it's two things. No day is ever the same. When you work on multiple clients and multiple campaigns within a client, you get to see a lot of different things, which keeps it varied and interesting.
Also, you get to work with a variety of people. I think those are the things that really keep me going.
On a personal side, I'm a freelancer, so there's a fair amount of flexibility. I'm there when clients need me, but I can also go for a long bike ride in the morning on a weekday. I think it's a balance of all that.
