Q+A

What do you know for sure?
I love my family.  My daughter June is such a sweet bright light and my husband is my best friend.  We have a boy on the way too and I just never knew I could love people this much, it makes me feel pretty lucky every single day. This is gushy but its really one of the things that I know for sure for sure.

If you had to change careers what would you want to do?
Run a little bed and breakfast on the shore or in the woods, raise some chickens, have a little garden and cook for people.  Maybe even sell dry goods out of a little shop for my neighbors.  I just dream of living the simple life with the fam!

Favorite quote?
You can’t always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you find
You get what you need
- The Rolling Stones

What is the world missing?
There are so many good things in the world, but if we had a little more respect for others, and a little more confidence in ourselves, and a little more empathy, I think that could go a long way.

Who is your favorite character?
Rocky. He’s tough, he works hard and he appreciates his wife.
