What is something you have done since High School that you never thought you would have done?

Flown on a flying trapeze and can't wait to do it again!

How You Found PSCS

Dumb luck, I suppose, since Andy and I founded the school. And once you know Andy, how could I not be involved?

Favorite Non-PSCS Activity

Looking at houses and figuring out how they could be remodeled. And planning/dreaming of trips around the world.

Favorite Movie

Chocolat. I just saw it for the second time last night, and it's still a sweet movie off the big screen.

Favorite Book

Home and kitchen remodeling/design books.

What music CD is currently in your player at home?

Typically, it's whatever Andy has put in. You can check his staff page.

If you could invite any two people from all of history to a small dinner in your home, who would they be and what would you ask them?

Kurt Jurgensen (an old friend) and my dad's dad (I never met him).

What talent (big or small) do you have that none of us know about?

I can fix things. I'll leave it at that.

Other personal information you think PSCS should promote about you on our website?

I like design — houses, gardens, fashion. And learning foreign languages.
