| Location | New York City, New York, United States |
| Introduction | Not easily typecast, I am still concerned that I am struggling with what to write here. If I cannot write about the subject about which I know more than anyone in the world (me), how will I "write what I know" in a blog? Maybe that's the best "about me": I'm overly-analytical and a little less self-aware than I wish, but I think the best part of being alive is the ability to learn. |
| Interests | Running, hiking, skiing, sailing, traveling, being outside!, reading, family, Junior League, writing/ journaling, fashion (sewing, trend spotting, business), television news (secret dream is to be a CNBC lady), trivia, board games |
| Favorite movies | Chariots of Fire, The Thomas Crown Affair, Great Expectations, Cruel Intentions, Father of the Bride, French Kiss |
| Favorite music | Christmas carols and Joni Mitchell make me emotional and I have never been passionate about seeking out new artists, instead resorting to old favorites (ecclectic!): Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen, Dispatch, Eric Clapton, MC Solaar, Cat Stevens, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Garth Brooks... |
| Favorite books | "Like Water for Chocolate", "The Power of One", "Atonement", "The Things We Carried", "The Canterbury Tales", anything Alexander McCall Smith or JK Rowling (also Dave Barry if I'm honest) |
Please describe how you could take the peel off an apple all in one go:
Start at the top and spiral down without getting my thumb caught under the knife!
