Something unique about you summed up in one sentence
My favorite quote, “Tell me, what it is you plan to do with your one wild and precious life” by Mary Oliver is hanging in our kitchen. Let’s all connect and make each day count!
Your favorite part of working at Bold Insight
The Bold Insight team is outstanding! The inclusiveness, attention to detail, and enthusiasm are unmatched by any other culture I have ever experienced.
In your spare time (or if you had spare time), you would absolutely do this:
Run, walk, or bike. I love to go to the beach with friends and family. A good book with a nap is part of a great day too.
Your favorite city in the world is...and why?
Barcelona; the nightlife, the beaches, and most importantly, the life changing nachos.
You cannot start the day without doing this:
A 5k with our dog, Polly, and a big coffee.
Your ultimate celebrity dinner party guest list would include:
We love to entertain and inviting these guests would spice up any bash: John Mulaney, Christopher McDougall, Melissa McCarthy, and Jimmy Fallon.
Long-term personal or professional goal?
I am hoping to complete five marathons; one for each of my five children.
Any other facts to share?
I was an Irish step dancer and as a child spent five summer vacations on my Uncle Humphrey’s farm in County Cork, Ireland.
