Five Questions
1. Three people with whom you’d love to have dinner? My mother-in-law who predeceased my introduction to my husband, the ballerina who gifted me her pointe shoes twenty some years ago when I played a tiny role in The Nutcracker at Shea’s Buffalo, and the Austrian exchange student that stayed with me during high school.
2. Favorite book? The Space Between Notes by Sinead Tyrone. I’m so proud the author is my coworker!
3. If you could live in a book or a movie, what would it be? The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou by Wes Anderson.
4. Skill you’d like to learn? I wish I was multi-lingual so I could travel more.
5. Favorite travel destination? I have fond memories of the Outer Banks, North Carolina. Before children, we stayed in Kill Devil Hills and enjoyed driving on the beach, beachcombing, visiting lighthouses, and biking on the bike paths. Now, we have two sons, one with cerebral palsy, and driving on the beach would make visiting the beach more accessible for him, and he enjoys riding his adaptive bike, so I’d love for him to go there with us someday.
