Q&A

  • What’s your favorite vacation spot?
    Without a doubt – New Orleans – amazing food, music, and art scene. The museums and people watching are also top notch.

  • What was your very first job?
    My very first job was as a day camp counselor in my hometown in the Northern suburbs of Chicago. Getting paid to sit out in the sun and play dodgeball was a wonderful way to spend the summer.

  • What’s your favorite book?
    The Secret History by Donna Tart. It has everything – a unique murder mystery, deeply flawed characters, and a twist ending. I couldn’t put it down.
