1. What are three words that best describe your personal brand?
Fresh, Energetic, Inspirational
2. Tell us why you’re awesome in two sentences or less.
I am an eternal optimist who sees the beauty in all things and the potential in all people.
3. What are your three biggest indulgences?
1) Chocolate Chip Cookies (I search out the best in the city, so please send suggestions!)
2) Themoth.org (Podcast junkie)
3) Bags. (Funky, not fancy.)
4. What is your biggest pet peeve?
Complainers.
5. If you could have dinner with anyone (living or not) who would it be and why?
Lily Tomlin. She rocked my world with her one-woman show, “Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe”. I sat in the third row at the Kennedy Center when I was 13 and I thought, “Now that is the most amazing woman I have ever seen.”
She was insightful, witty, honest and powerful all at the same time.
6. Why is having a powerful personal brand important to you?
You get one chance to make a great first impression. My brand is the best substitute for meeting me in person. So, if we don’t meet at an event or a party, I want you to “meet” me on my website.
7. What is your #1 marketing tip for fellow female entrepreneurs?
Love telling your story. Your energy and enthusiasm will touch everyone you meet. When you share your passion, you build a tribe. (And a healthy bank account!)
