Name 3 things people at work probably don’t know about you.


I was in a barbershop chorus that won a medal at the international contest. I have 12 grandchildren. I once whistled the piccolo solo from the "Stars and Stripes Forever" for an audience that included the then-current POTUS (Bush 41).

I was really into cryptids as a kid. For one of my birthdays, I asked for a NOVA special on the Lock Ness Monster. Nessie will always hold a special and nostalgic place in my heart.

Print or Digital? Video or Audio? Why?

What’s the coolest thing about your job?


The fantastic people. Everyone is genuinely kind and great to be around. We support each other, have interesting discussions, share baked goods in the kitchen, and love on all the dog friends in the office.



What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?


To sit back and listen to others more often. And to be tolerant and patient with opinions that differ from your own. It's a difficult thing to practice these days!
