  1. Road trip destination on your bucket list? It’s not very original, but I’d love to drive Route 66 (windows down, hair flying wild) and do the Grand Canyon.  But I’ll take glamping over camping, thank you very much.  
  2. What's something you admire about entrepreneurs? Where I only see risks and obstacles, they see opportunity – I wish I could change the chemistry of my brain to think that way, but I guess I’m a lawyer for a reason…
  3. Online, you'll find me… Playing Sudoku, reading long form articles and scouring secondhand auction sites for art and homewares (taking a break from doom scrolling for the foreseeable future).
  4. Offline, you'll find me… Taking my chocolate lab for long walks, smelling flowers, shopping at farmers’ markets, seeing art, eating and drinking my way through town…but, more likely, at a soccer game, piano recital, riding lesson, play date, you get the point.
