Q: What is your favorite city to travel to? 

A: My favorite city is Paris. Who doesn’t love the City of Love and Light? I love everything about it, from the architecture, museums, and restaurants, to the way the Parisienne women put themselves together so effortlessly. 

Q: What’s one of your favorite books? 

A: Although I’m an avid reader and love too many books to recount, one of my favorites is Beneath A Marble Sky by John Shors. Reading always teaches us things we may not have known. Although this is a novel, I learned why the Taj Mahal was built and how a man paid homage to his beloved wife.

Q: What does your power outfit consist of? 

A: My power outfit consists of a great blazer, jeans or trousers, a rock-and-roll tee, and a great pair of boots!
