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
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like? I go to sleep late. I wake up early(ish). Somehow, I manage to stay up late watching odd shows, movies, or documentaries such as “How to Become a Tyrant.” No wonder some of […]
Which aspects do you think makes a person unique? There are many characteristics that we tend to believe make us unique and different from others. I’m not too sure there are many unique snowflakes out there. I’m using the term snowflake to mean an actual snowflake as there […]

What’s something most people don’t understand? Immediately, upon losing a dear one, you are often emotionally devastated. You are left without words. You may even forget to eat. Then, depending on your associated role with the one who has passed, you get mired in paperwork and various heavy […]
How has technology changed your job? Look, technology keeps evolving. I’m old enough to remember Blockbuster. I’m hearing that they may make a comeback. They went away, and maybe they’ll come back new and enhanced. Technology keeps us moving forward. Although, it also seems as if it makes […]
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? Some people can easily say “no” to people and draw boundaries. I can easily say “no” in the workplace to right a ship. It’s what I do. Well, I actually find a way to […]
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? It’s actually not too much of a secret. I laugh a lot. I bring mirth and jokes to most instances. I like to be jolly. Yet, I’m also a curmudgeon. Can’t help it. I’m a New […]
It’s been a dark, cruel winter. Decades ago, Bananarama sang about a cruel summer. “Hot summer streets and the pavements are burningI sit aroundTrying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry” Just substitute out the word “summer” for “winter”. Such a word substitution captures the […]
