1. What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?
   Empathy plays an important role in the relationships in my life. It affects how I interact with my family and friends. Being able to put myself in their shoes helps me to understand what is frustrating my best friend about a project at work or why my husband is excited about the new snowboard bag he just ordered. Then I’m able to get excited with him or support my best friend better.
2. How does empathy help you build better software?
   Without empathy software can be built, but in the end probably won’t meet all of the end user’s need. How can you design something for someone without understanding how they use it, what need it is meeting for them, or in what way it is a solution to their problem? Empathy helps you to put yourself in the shoes of the user and how they interact with or use the software. Taking time to listening empathetically gives you insight not into just what they say, but also into their actio

   Invest in yourself - It's easy to get caught up in a project especially when I feel like I'm right on the verge of figuring something out. Sometimes the best way to figure out the next piece is to walk away for a bit and have some fun or doing something to take care of yourself. Working endlessly isn't feasible or productive, self-care is really important.
   Treat mistakes as learnable moments - Focusing on perfection doesn't help you to learn and progress. I want to get things right the first time, but making mistakes and then working though why things didn't work can help lay a foundation to better understand in the future. Trying to remember that so I don't get frustrated when I make a mistake.
   Say I Don't Know - It's important not to waste time pretendi
