Can you tell us a secret no one would guess about you?

Oh I have many secrets. I will give you three. 1) I have screws in my feet. 2) I have never done drugs. 3) And I am wild about laundry. The loading, the smell, the folding… I love it all. But my husband won’t let me touch his laundry. He is very particular.


One meal you could eat everyday?

I don’t know if this is the exact name, but I call it a “Breakfast Salad”. I love a salad with an egg on top in the morning. 


One vice you wont give up?

I only have one vice so I am determined to keep it. Chocolate! That can be in bar, candy, cake, cookie or ice cream form. No suckers please.  


Late riser or early bird?

Early Riser. I am definitely a morning person.  I am my best self for the first part of the day.


Morning routine you swear by?

I have grown quite fond of the “school drop off and then straight to the gym” combo.  It’s a productive pairing.


One day I hope…

Women feel fully free instead of fear in their bodies.


More the merrier or less is more?

I am always aiming for less is more. That goes for crowds, clothes and mostly importantly toy Monster Trucks. I confess I am failing on that last one.


Cool brands you love?

KIDO Chicago: This incredible children’s store is beautifully curated with a focus on representation and inclusivity. The products span a wide range and ship nationwide. From books to bikes and crayons to clothes, you will feel good with every purchase.

HAPPY EARS: This Swedish brand is making eco-friendly reusable earplugs made from your choice of ocean or recycled plastics. They are extremely comfortable and can reduce the sound by up to 27 decibels. They can be used for sleeping, swimming or concert going. Your ears and oceans will thank you. 


On the horizon: what’s coming soon?

I have been asked to be the Grand Marshall of my hometown holiday parade in Michigan.  I have finally made it!!
