    On this episode of Inspiration is Everywhere, Jane and Tavi are continuing the conversation about Nature and Human Nature by having a conversation with San Diego State Department Human Resources Manager Manuel Quintero “I danced in LA with Pacifico Dance Company for 14 years before moving down to SD to be with Michael. I grew up realizing I loved creativity and explored it later in life, as I grew up in a conservative home. The exploitation into design, dance, the arts, and performing for others gave me high satisfaction. I felt our performances or "journey" we carried audiences through in an evening performance was a gift to them; the ability to transport others to a different world in a couple of hours. I yearned for more of this so found clever ways of incorporating creativity and design into creating customized policies, procedures, training programs, and healthy workplace cultures.” -Manuel Quintero
