My Lists

Describe your current or ideal job:

Creating marketing campaigns for media products that I helped develop.

Describe your favorite spot in your home:

Early in the morning, at the kitchen table, drinking coffee out of our matching anniversary mugs, reading The New York Times with my husband.

When you were a child, what did you dream of becoming:

A business woman that wore high heels and played tennis.

How do you stay fit:

I have a tendency to exercise intensely for a week, or so, followed by a 3 month hiatus. But I just joined LifeTime Fitness Center and the kids are in classes a couple of days a week so I’m hoping to get a more consistent routine.

If money were no object, what would you purchase:

We would build a house with a giant dining room so my husband’s end of the table wouldn’t be in the living room during a family dinner. We would have dorm rooms with big, beautiful comfy beds for all of our visiting kids and their family and friends. And I would buy that gigantic WELCOME mat on sale at Costco for our gigantic front porch.

Describe how you are most well known in your neighborhood:

Having a blended family.
Being artistic or well read or just different.
Being a good cook.
