Q & A
What are you most proud of in your career?
The longevity of my client base, and how these clients’ programs have evolved over the years I’ve been at Prosek.
Name one thing most people don’t know about you.
I have a fascination with the 90 Day Fiancé franchise and watch them all.
How would your mother describe you?
A handful.
What are your greatest strengths as a communications practitioner?
Not to be corny, but I would say my ability to be a “communications chameleon.” From reporters to clients to team members, I adapt my style and counsel to maximize impact and help us reach our joint goals.
What is your favorite food?
I appreciate a good meatball. Also, a perfectly ripe avocado. Not together.
Describe your perfect client.
They see me as an extension of their team and are collaborative, honest, and intellectually curious.
What three hobbies or activities do you enjoy most?
Walking along the Hoboken waterfront with a Dunkin’ iced coffee, travel (especially my yearly “big trip”) and reading a good book on a quiet beach.
What’s your favorite part of the workday?
My best work is done early in the morning. I love the calm before the email storm – it’s when I do my most creative thinking and am the most productive.
Who would play you in the movie version of your life?
Uma Thurman (with a wig).
What is your favorite quote?
“…Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.”
