Working with amazing people.

Don’t make any big plans for 2020.

Teleportation. Oh, the time I would save…

The World According to Garp. Perfectly written, well rounded characters, funny, sad…everything you’d want from a book.
7. At which store would you like to max out your credit card & why?
Not a store, but Six Flags — I never get tired of roller coasters.
8. What’s your hidden talent?
I can analyze most TV shows at a decent level.

A Roxette CD (I was a teenager in the 90’s!)
