““As a child, I was told by my parents and teachers that if I didn't have what I wanted, I had to either accept the situation or create something. So I was always creating things, like backyard carnivals and an "automated" lemonade stand from an empty refrigerator box. Or a four-tunnel tent in the living room that I had made from blankets and chairs. I believe that "necessity is the mother of invention" and I practice it all the time.””
