I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
Blindsiding in the workplace: My longstanding pet peeve I have great peripheral vision. I think it has something to do with having grown up in the South Bronx. Walking home from the subway at night meant being extremely vigilant staring ahead trying to gauge what was occurring […]
The psychology of field (retreat) day: Sadness and joy at the dewy mist The flight was nicely uneventful other than the fact that my ear drums felt like they were going to burst. One of the worse things possible on a business trip is getting sick with […]
What to do when your nice neighbor has a rage-filled child and she needs a break? I grew up with very confusing imagery and thoughts of babies. I can recall The Shining where twins warned of impending murder (“redrum”, that is). The Omen warned us of little boys […]

The pentagon has a zombie survival guide and there’s cocaine in the toilet: This week’s wacky news Happy spring. We are knee deep into the allergy season and a majority of us are sneezing up a storm. It may be that all that sneezing, coughing and sniffling […]
You long to quench your thirst You long to feed your soul You long for a moment of inner peace A green cocktail can soothe and nurse A beautiful bar can serve as a stole An eye’s search for art can be appeased The lovely […]
Love at first sight: Walking the scorching hot summer New York City streets in search of a loving dog It was one of those scorching hot New York City summer months. When it hits 90 degrees or above in New York City, you can see the newspapers, […]
It was a girl’s road trip. Or rather it was a girl’s about-to-graduate-college-looking-for-their-next-role road trip. We drove down eagerly from upstate New York down to Washington, DC. She had been down there previously in eight grads as part of a school trip. She remembered the grimy hotel and […]
As I am excitedly starting to plan out my Australia trip for this coming summer, I am wondering what it will be like to leave Australia. Sounds strange, I know. See, I know it will be a lovely and empowering trip. I will be going to a country […]
