Relationships are the driving force behind my passion for life. Our existence on this earth is full of many great adventures, but I believe the authentic thrill you receive when you meet someone new is to live for. My hope is to live out this zest for life at Seek. I bring to the Seek team a wide array of knowledge in retail management and product development, sports marketing, and most recently, textbook publishing and sales. With the consumer at the core of each of these experiences, I have come to understand the value of the end user. My promise is to provide each of my team members with a partnership to work towards a common goal. And that is to have a finalized product that is both satisfying for Seek and my client. When I can't be found in the office you can probably catch me, working out, watching football, or spending time with family and friends.

Here's the random stuff...

1. Blue or black pens?  Why?  If these options were laid in front of me, I would chose a black pen, but every now and then I do like to switch it up.
2. Ideal vacation (no budget limit, 2 weeks maximum)?  Well to begin with the ideal vacation would last longer than two weeks. During the first week all my close friends and family would accompany me on an adventure to Greece. Then we would transgress to an isolated island with crystal clear water and white sand. I have not decided which island yet, but our time would be spent lounging, laughing, playing football on the beach, and reminiscing about our past experiences. What better way to spend time with people you care most about! Oh, and I would eat whatever I wanted and not worry about burning the extra calories.
3. Best Halloween costume you’ve ever worn?   I didn't dress up for Halloween too often, but one costume that comes to mind is when I dressed up as a U.S. Postal Employee. Yeah, I know random.
4. Something nobody at Seek knew about you before you answered this question?  Brace yourself this is somewhat disturbing, but I once got the hook of a hanger stuck in my eye.  
5. Do you sleep with one or two pillows?  Why?  Recently I have started sleeping with two pillows, but as long as I have at least one fluffy pillow, I am good.  
6. Which Friends character most reminds you most of yourself, assuming gender is not relevant?  Why?   Due to the fact that I am indecisive in many situations, this proven to be one…I have to say that there is something about each of the cast members that I can relate to. Monica because I enjoy cooking and cannot live without order in my life. Joey because I like to dream big. Phoebe because my silliness does come out every now and then. Chandler because I do not like to fail. Rachel because I love to love. And Ross because I can be somewhat of a nerd sometimes.
7. If you had to live on nothing but fast food for two weeks, what would be your meal of choice?   I am not a fan of fast food, but if I had a choice it would be Arby’s. I could eat practically anything on the menu.
8. Mac or PC?  Why?  I do not have enough experience working with a Mac to distinguish between the two. But I must admit I find the Mac quite attractive in its design features.   
9. It’s a warm summer night and you’re sitting on the front porch...what drink is in your hand?   Strawberry Lemonade, more specifically from The Cheesecake Factory.  
10. Worst job you’ve ever had?  Working as a hostess at a restaurant at a yacht club up North. The owners and other staff members were not that friendly which made my time spent there miserable. And I had to drive 45 minutes to get to work on country roads, not fun! Not to mention that customers rarely came in to eat.   
11. Favorite automobile you’ve ever owned?  I have yet to have a favorite car but, hopefully, one day I will own a black Audi with a sun roof. Until this day comes, I will continue to fantasize.
