Youngstown, Ohio

WHAT BOOK THAT YOU READ WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER HAD THE BIGGEST IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE?
Enders Game by Orson Scott Card. It is a science fiction/fantasy book about a boy who is tasked with saving the world. I read it for the first time when I was 12 and have read it again many times since. Each time I discover another hidden lesson.

IF YOU WERE TO CHOOSE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CAREER PATH, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
A coach. I’ve always wanted to coach basketball or volleyball.

WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO EAT/DRINK IN THE (EX. KANNAPOLIS, CHAPEL HILL) AREA?
French Express – it’s a coffee shop. It beats Starbucks any day of the week.

WHERE WAS THE BEST PLACE YOU HAVE TRAVELED SO FAR?
San Francisco. My husband and I rent bikes and go everywhere. The first time I rode over the Golden Gate Bridge was pretty amazing.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SOUVENIR THAT YOU BROUGHT BACK ON ONE OF YOUR TRIPS?
A heart-shaped rock. My husband found it last summer and incorporated it in to our wedding. We were married at the top of a mountain in NC.

WHERE HAVEN’T YOU TRAVELED THAT YOU WOULD WANT TO GO?
France. I want to be in France during the Tour de France, and go to every stop along the route.

My mom’s chicken pot pie. It’s one of those recipes that doesn’t have a set of instructions, so it changes a little each time. It’s amazing! I also love ice cream. This past year I introduced the lab to Handel’s ice cream, an ice cream shop from my hometown. It’s safe to say they are all in love with it too!

WHAT BOOK/MOVIE/PODCAST ARE YOU CURRENTLY HOOKED ON?
The School of Greatness with Lewis Howes. There is a topic and interest for everyone!

DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS?
I have 3 dogs. Sam, an 11-year-old Dane/Lab mix; Zelda, a 1-year-old German Shepherd Dog; and Howie, a 1-year-old Great Dane/greyhound/who knows what mix.
