However, when her own children developed an interest in Lego, her dormant passion for building with these colorful bricks was reignited. Late nights spent constructing intricate designs became the norm, especially since her son, who is autistic, found solace in Lego. Liz's journey from Lego enthusiast to Lego Master began here.
