A typical day in my life includes…
“waking up” to several alarms set in hopes of getting me to the gym two hours before I am supposed to be up and ready for work but actually just hitting the snooze button until it’s 30 minutes before I need to be at work. Go to work. Then actually go to the gym. Stop and get dinner. Get in bed and catch up on any given BRAVO reality show recorded that day. Sleep. Rinse and repeat.
I was born…
in the windy city on May 30th…I am a true Gemini.
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the palm trees! Being from the Midwest, the only palm trees I would ever see would be on vacation. I still get that “being on vacation” feeling every time I see them.
I’m listening to…
the Frank Sinatra station on XM radio.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Dead: Liberace. Alive: Tom Ford.
One thing I cannot live without…
MY PHONE! Not because of social media either. It’s my connection to my mom who still lives back in Chicago and I talk with multiple times a day.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a dentist.
I’m inspired by…
anyone who is self made. Knowing someone had nothing and turned it into everything is so inspiring to me.
The perfect day would be…
I would wake up in a gorgeous hotel suite on a beautiful beach and have a wonderful breakfast, a massage in the hotel spa and spend the afternoon on a boat with my family and closest friends and come back to a large seafood dinner at sunset.
My first job was…
a host at the Applebees in the neighboring town from where I grew up. GAG!
My favorite escape…
The St. Regis Punta Mita.
My life…
is a constant work in progress.
I’m currently working on…
6 pack abs.
Always…
have a tan.
Never…
stop being yourself for someone else.
Favorite Quote…
“Too much of a good thing is wonderful!”
Biggest Dream…
a day when work would become optional for me and I can spend my life traveling with the person I love.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
copy cats, people who don’t pay attention and smokers.
