5. When people visit your town, what are the top local spot(s) you recommend to them?
Of course, I’d choose a dinner experience. The Thompson Hotel has Monarch for good food and an amazing view of the city or Kessaku for dinner or a cool culinary/crafting experience (they have a Japanese flower arrangement class with sushi coming up) and then to Catbird for drinks + Dallas vibes.

6. What's a topic you wish you knew more about or a skill you want to learn/improve?
In 2024 I look forward to learning to cook at a high level (that matches the quality of food that I enjoy so much) 😊

7. Tell us about the best or most memorable meal you've cooked or eaten! What made it special?
The most memorable meal was when my daughter and I cooked dinner for my parents for the first time. My mom is always such a gracious and thoughtful host and it made me so happy to make my parents happy with a good meal. I made steaks in the cast iron with a cauliflower mash and haricot verts and my daughter baked a cake from scratch. I felt like a real grown-up getting to host them 😊

8. What is your favorite memory from the past year?
Going to see Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour in LA on her birthday.

9. Show us your true colors! Which professional and/or college team(s) do you cheer for?
THE Ohio State University

10. What are you most looking forward to at Tangram and what do you hope to bring to the team?
I am looking forward to being part of such a wonderful team. I’ve gotten to observe the Tangram team from both a collaborative + competitive angle, and I think Tangram is uniquely positioned in this market to make a big impact. I’m looking forward to learning from my teammates and I’m hopeful that my previous experience + can do attitude will make me an asset to them as well.
