When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a civil engineer. No joke. I would come home from school and build bridges out of toothpicks and see how much weight they would hold before falling.

I think I'd be quite good at Builder, like designer, construction... I've always liked making things. I'm quite good with my hands. So I think I'd be quite good at designing new inventions.

I usually describe myself as an engineer; that's basically what I've been doing since I was a kid.

I'd like to be an inventor, as they look at the world in a different way and find solutions for making it better.

I'd love to be part of the process of building cars.

When I was little, I wanted to be a civil engineer. Not a ballerina, not a doctor, a civil engineer. I was such a nerd.

But while doing that I'd been following a variety of fields in science and technology, including the work in molecular biology, genetic engineering, and so forth.

I am a mechanical techie. I can build things with my hands.

I couldn't be a cameraman or a designer or an actor - I have to be a director because I learned how to do that from my dad.

In school all I wanted to do was build technology. That's what I loved.
