Which event in the past, present or future would you like to witness in person?

I would have liked to see Led Zeppelin, Queen, or David Bowie play live in their prime. I'd be grateful to see any one of them but all three in one gig somehow, sign me up!|

What's your favorite quotation?

I can't source who said it, but as a soccer coach I always go back to "Win with Class, Lose with Dignity."

When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be an astronaut (and still kind of do).

What is on the top of your "bucket list"?

Hopefully space tourism becomes a thing, because seeing the Earth from up there would be spectacular.

Five Favorites:

Favorite Movie? Empire Strikes Back (Star Wars Episode 5)

Favorite Dish/Meal/Cuisine? Sushi.

Favorite Car? Lykan Hypersport

Favorite Song? "Your Hand in Mine" by Explosions in the Sky

Favorite book? Watchmen

What do you like best about your job?

Definitely the relationships I have with my clients. Each is so unique too, which makes coming to work a real joy. Every day is something new, a challenge or campaign, all unique from the last. I enjoy working with others and finding solutions to complex problems, and this job affords me both.

What is something interesting / unusual that you want us to know about you?

I was a pro gamer from 2001 to 2011. I competed in Major League Gaming (MLG) on the Xbox and competed in the Halo and Call of Duty series of games. The first was Halo: CE and the last was Modern Warfare 3.

Have you ever been awarded anything that you would like to tell us about?

I was valedictorian in college, which was a goal of mine I was proud to achieve. My parents always instilled the importance of studies, and my dad set a nearly impossible standard, but I like to think that I made him proud with that award.

Any Achievements/Accomplishments you want to share?

I would rather highlight my club soccer team. It's an amazing group of young women who I have been fortunate enough to coach for the last 6 years. The list is pretty lengthy in terms of trophies and accomplishments, but I would just say I am most proud of being a positive influence on their lives.

In which activity would you like a lesson from an expert?

Scuba diving for sure, and then we can take it out to the open ocean and swim with some sharks (no cage).
