Interview

• What do you do for fun?
  I’m a born creator. The elements and principles of design transcend all design disciplines, so I try my hand in many different areas — from apparel to furniture to graphics. I love to learn new techniques and new media — leather, paper, fabrics and fibers, paints, dyes, even wood. I want to learn to do everything right and do it well, by the book as well as in a practical sense. Once I master a particular craft, I typically lose interest and move on.
• What would you like your followers to know about you that is unique and even a bit personal?
  I would like them to know that I struggle with the same demons as everyone else and that they are not alone. I am here to help.
• If you and I were on the beach having some wine and great food, what would you tell me about yourself.
  I would talk about my passion for cooking and food, which I owe to my Italian grandmother who helped raise me.
• What makes you stand out from the crowd?
  The shock of platinum blond hair is pretty easy to spot in a crowd!
• What should others absolutely know about you?
  I am an open book — if you ask me, I will tell you. Some may think I’m a tough nut to crack or that I’m slow to open up, but all you have to do is ask.
• If you have to pick one thing that everyone else should absolutely know about you, what would it be?
  I feel like I answered this one already ☝️
• What is your ‘niche’?
  I have an uncommon intelligence beyond my pleasant exterior, offering stimulating conversation as well as physical satisfaction.
• What do you enjoy most about yourself?
  I most enjoy my ability to keep cool. I enjoy life most when everyone around me is content and having fun.
• Tell us what you consider to be your greatest life experience.
  My greatest life experiences were road trips with my family growing up. We drove everywhere from New York to Florida to Texas to Phoenix to San Francisco to Vancouver, stopping at every MLB stadium on the way, whether there was a game or not. We all learned so much about each other and ourselves while snaking the map, packed like sardines in our minivan.
• How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or you are more of a homebody?
  That’ll depend on the weather! I’m a homebody when it rains, but on sunny days I’d rather be exploring the nature trails in a new city.
• What’s your lifestyle? What makes you who you are?
  My lifestyle is that of leisure, adventure, and productivity. I’m equally at peace dining al fresco on some faraway beach as I am prepping to wallpaper a bathroom.
• What are your greatest personal traits?
  My greatest personal trait is my desire to make those around me comfortable and happy. Whether we’re picking seats in a movie theater or taking a break during a bout of group sex, overwhelming need to please must be quenched.
• Name 5 things that you can’t live without.
  1.) silicone lube
  2.) Apple TV
  3.) scissors
  4.) chapstick
  5.) good lighting, oxygen, food, and water
  (In that order)
• What kind of diet and fitness regiment do you follow?
  Generally I exercise in life, not at a gym. I mostly work out at home, stretching and doing strength exercises while watching TV. I maintain an active lifestyle and remain busy all day, and rarely do I find myself bored or having nothing to do. I eat often but well. I snack throughout the day on fruit, nuts, seed bread, and bits of leftovers, I love to cook (pasta is my specialty), and I “splurge” on homemade vanilla ice cream nightly.
• How do you go that ‘extra mile' in your life?
  That “extra mile” is my intense eye for detail.
• What are your hobbies? What do you like to do in your spare time?
  I love to create, everything from home improvement projects to painting on canvas.
