Quotes

‘You definitely have to be flexible. This is not a job for someone looking to work Monday through Friday, 9 to 5, with holidays. But the tradeoff is doing something you’re passionate about and the flexibility changes over the years. You just think of it as a lifestyle, not a job, with unique demands.’
