When you have downtime, how do you spend it?
Reading, studying (one more year of my MBA program left), wine, dinner, and travelling.

Tell us two lies and a truth about yourself…keep them guessing!
1. I was born with an extra set of front teeth, which my dentist extracted when I was a teenager.
2. I carbo-load on fried chicken, and I know where all the Popeye’s are in the city. (There are 4 in the City and 10 in the Bay Area…finger licking good)
3. My hair color is natural.
