Describe the view from your desk.ÌýÌýI have a lovely view into the DSC Leadership Lounge – but I can see outside through the LL windows – not a bad view.

What do you listen to at work?ÌýÌýI listen to a lot of lounge music – it’s really good white noise/work music. I also try and listen to Eckhart Tolle when I can for perspective. If it’sÌýFriday, I have a habit of listening to nostalgic 80’s music.

What is your favorite to-do list manager?ÌýÌýI’ve tried a dozen different things, but always go back to Google Calendar, and good ol’ Post-It Notes. My desk is covered with them most days.

What is your work schedule?ÌýÌýM-F, 8-5 unless there is something going on after hours that our office is programming.

Besides your phone and computer, what gadget can’t you live without?ÌýI’ve had a NEST thermostat for a couple of years now and it’s a great invention. I also love our AppleTV – We have been cable/satellite free for years and only use the AppleTV and whatever channels we get for free over the air.

PC or Mac?ÌýI beef up an iMac every 5 years or so here at the office….seems to always work like a champ no matter how hard I work it.

Favorite workday snack? Definitely trail-mix.Ìý

What is your favorite piece of art and why?ÌýTough question – I traveled with an architectural photographer for years when I was in my twenties (), so I’m drawn to architecture / photography. I find architecture to be the most powerful form of art (when done correctly) for its sense of inherent responsibility. A painting or sculpture can be brilliant, but they don’t necessarily hold any accountability. Buildings have to be safe, and oftentimes beautiful places we all get to enjoy.
