happiness is:
Managing complex projects with multiple stakeholders and countless moving parts. Creating a killer book map. Organization and order. Cocktails with the girls. Celebrity gossip.

resume:
Began in magazine publishing: first at the hugely popular Salt Water Sportsman, then at The Pohly Company. High school stint as pill counter at Rock Ridge Pharmacy. Winner of Richard E. Byrd Elementary School’s prestigious 6th grade Citizenship Award.

brand soundbite:
“I’m attracted to different brands for different reasons. Apple is clean and simple, Starbucks is bold, Paper Source has a vintage flair. But they all have one thing in common: they’re easy to recognize, and they’re easy to understand. To me, that’s what a successful brand is all about.”

lunchtime chatter:
Project Runway. Emotional well being of her French bulldog Otto.
