Q: Where are you from?

A: I was born in Oklahoma but raised in Farmington, Connecticut!

Q: How did you choose this career path?

A: When I was a senior in high school, I shadowed a marketing manager at Stanley Access Technologies for a day, and I got to see firsthand what someone who works in marketing does. I loved the combination of creativity and strategy. At that point in my life, I was debating what direction I wanted to go career-wise, but after seeing the day-to-day life of a marketing professional, I knew it was the path for me!

Q: What is the strangest job you've ever had?

A: While I was a student at UConn, I worked at the Rec Center. We regularly had to give tours to prospective students, and one day, Bon Jovi and his son came in with an entire entourage to get a tour of the rec center!

Q: What is your favorite quote?

A: “No matter what happens in life, always be good to people, it’s a wonderful legacy to leave behind” - Taylor Swift

Q: Do you have any pets?

A: Yes!! I have a Cocker Spaniel named Lady. She looks exactly like Lady from Lady and the Tramp! She is everything to me! I love spending time with her and enjoy trying to take her to as many places as I can!

Q: Do you have any hobbies outside of work?

A: I love to stay active. I am a retired Division I Rower, but I love going on hikes with my dog, pilates, and yoga in my free time now! I also love taking pictures and creating content for my social media accounts, exploring new places, and constantly trying new things.

Q: Pick three words to describe yourself.

A: Resilient, Empathetic, and Fun!

Q: Favorite musician?

A: Taylor Swift… I found out we had the same birthday when I was 7… Naturally, I have been a massive fan ever since.

Q: If you were a Crayola Crayon, what could would you be?

A: Mango Tango! This is the color of my bedroom walls, it's a cozy, calm, and fun color!

Q: If you could live in a TV show, book, or movie, which one would you pick?

A: This is tough, but I have to go with Harry Potter because those quizzes are not enough. I want the sorting hat to tell me I'm a Gryffindor for real, and I want to experience being a student at Hogwarts!
