My favorite writer is: I am not a huge reader and really prefer listening to books on Audible. I recently listened to The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides and loved it. The ending was the best!
Someone I’d like to meet: Oprah…she has accomplished so much and has given back even more.
If I could switch places with someone for one day, I’d choose: The President. I would love to see what it was like but just for 24 hours.
I like to spend my leisure time: I just started playing tennis and love getting to spend time on the court. I also enjoy going on to dinner with friends and hanging out with family.

You will never catch me: Beekeeping! I have a huge phobia of flying insects that sting!

My favorite movie is: Pretty Woman, it is so romantic and sweet.
My favorite meal is: Homemade macaroni and cheese, Stouffers Spinach Soufflé and Chocolate Cake.
Few people know: My favorite Christmas present I ever received was a Charlie Brown tabletop Christmas tree. I hate decorating for Christmas and hire someone to decorate our tree. Once the kids are grown Doug and I will just have our perfect Charlie Brown tree!
