What is the craziest place you have ever traveled to: Morocco—everything was crazy to me: painting myself with Henna, cobra dancing, monkeys in the square...
Favorite Smart Meetings memory? I have so many, everyday brings great memories with our wonderful staff. I love the first time we opened the box and found our first magazine inside, or when we first got Scarlett, as a six-week-old puppy and brought her to the office. Everyone looked at us like “you are kidding” but grew to love her and put up with her potty training (well, kind of).
What is the greatest skill you bring to the team? Vision, Energy and Creativity.
What is your favorite part of a meeting? The exchange of ideas and energy that comes from getting everyone together in one place, and the fun food at breaks!
On the weekends you are likely to be…Walking my dogs, cooking or working out.
How do you take your coffee? Black… I prefer cappuccinos.
What’s your favorite book or author? Joy Luck Club and Naomi Wolf
What phrase could describe your desk? Piles waiting for files
