WHAT SPORTS OR ACTIVITIES WERE YOU INVOLVED WITH GROWING UP? Volleyball & piano were my main activities. I took piano lessons for eight years and played volleyball through middle & high school, ultimately earning an athletic scholarship to my first university.
WHO WAS YOUR FAVORITE ATHLETE GROWING UP? Michael Jordan. We lived near Chicago in the 90’s when the Bulls were on their championship run. I loved going to games with my dad and eating at Jordan’s restaurant beforehand.
WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT YOUR JOB? Working with fun people and building cool stuff. We are lucky to do what we do, and I am grateful for that. I’ve enjoyed our growth as an organization over the last 13 years. Being part of building an organization, and brand, is intriguing and fun for me. It keeps me on my toes professionally, and I’m grateful for that.
