"I want to be transformative wherever I go and use creativity as a vehicle for that. I get a thrill in connection through that transformation - working with people, clients, and inputting into people and my team. That's my purpose. When I have hard days, I remember that 'why', that I can be the transformer wherever I go - Danny Carlsen.
