MJ
- Where were you born?
- Waukegan, Illinois. It’s a suburb of Chicago.
- As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
- Professional Skateboarder and/or Freestyle BMX Rider
- If you had a time machine, would you go back in time or into the future?
- Probably the future since I’m a tecnogeek and futurist at heart.
- What is your life like outside of TiltShift?
- Life outside of TiltShift? What’s that? HAH I’M KIDDING. Hmmm let’s see so many different things! Cooking, going on hikes, going to the beach, video games, VR, watching Movies/TV shows/Anime, lifting weights, making fresh pasta from scratch on Saturday nights, sous-vide steaks, naps in the park, whiskey on Fridays, walks around the neighborhood every day after lunch, Brunch on Sundays – all of these things with my lovely girlfriend of course 🙂
- What is the most interesting fact about you?
- Hmmm uh maybe one of these? I was once in an episode of the TV Show “Touched by an Angel” when I was younger. I once ran a Super Spartan in Temecula race and only failed at one obstacle. My lucky number is 7 because my first, middle, and last names all have 7 letters in them and I’m 7 different ethnicities (mutts rule!).
- If you had one wish what would it be?
- For unlimited wishes of course.
- For unlimited wishes of course.
- If you could be any superhero, which one would you be and why?
- My favorite superhero growing up was Batman. Something about a normal guy with no “super powers” (except maybe being worth $100 billion dollars), through pure will, determination, studying, and discipline becomes The Worlds Greatest Detective and is one of the initial Justice League members. I don’t know if I’d want to be him though. Seems like an awful lot of work and no sleep. Let’s go with Dr. Manhattan.
- What’s the best advice you have ever received?
- “Do something that scares you every day.”
- What advice would you give your younger self?
- Sink your life savings into Apple stock in the beginning of 2010.
- What’s your favorite thing about working at TiltShift?
- Everybody that works here from top to bottom are some of the nicest people that I have ever met, let alone worked with. Doesn’t hurt that they’re also some of the most talented as well! I’d also like to give a shout out to TiltShift’s Work From Home policy!
- What are the 3-4 words or phrases that best describe you?
- Sarcastic, funny, quick, irreverent
- If you weren’t a stellar (insert current role) what would you be known for instead?
- Probably a Fry Cook on Venus.
