What is your favorite part of your job?
Being creative every day and getting paid for it is definitely a highlight. But my favorite part is seeing how excited my clients get when their ideas are brought to life. I also really enjoy working with a team of talented and creative people, they take a lot of pride in their work and helping our customers. It makes a real difference in the workplace.
What's your favorite color, and why?
Red has always been my favorite color. It is rich and warm and makes me feel good.
What's your favorite candy?
Cadbury mini eggs - I am glad they only make them for the Easter holiday; otherwise, I would be hitting the gym a lot more.
What is your favorite movie quote?
"Do you know the muffin man?" from the movie Shrek. It cracks me up every time I hear it!
If you could have any super power, what would it be and why?
I would want to have the power to fly - it would be better for the environment, I wouldn't have to pay to travel to great destinations, and I would no longer have to face my fear of airplanes.
What would you do if you won $1 million?
I would probably keep my same lifestyle, but I would pay off my mortgage (and my mom's mortgage). I would set aside some money to send a deserving kid to college. I would also buy a catamaran in the British Virgin Islands and vacation there frequently with my husband and son.
Who inspires you, and why?
That is a tough question. I get a lot of inspiration from many of my friends and family. They each have qualities that are admirable. They are constantly teaching me through their actions how to be a kinder and more loving person. My husband and son specifically inspire me to live life to the fullest and enjoy every moment we get!
What is your best military memory?
Although I am not in the military, I had the privilege of touring the Pentagon with a commander in the Navy during my DIA Gateway training. The commander was at the Pentagon the day of 9/11. His account of that day really touched me - he lost several good friends that day, and still carries a piece of the plane in his pocket. His story deepened my appreciation for our military, and the sacrifices they make to protect and serve our country.
What do you want people to know about you? I feel truly grateful for the blessings in my life - life is good!
