FAVOURITE LOCAL HANGOUT?
I love working with local retailers and designers all around Boston. Spending time in stores or showrooms [before quarantine] brought ne great joy! When I really need to unwind and feel centered I head to the beach. Being a California girl the beach reminds me of home and gives me a sense of calm.
DAILY RITUAL?
I’ve taken up running as one of my daily exercises during Covid. I’ve never been a runner nor did I ever think I would be but being able to run clears my head and gives me the fresh perspective I need.
SECRET WEAPON?
A great top! If you have one or two great tops you can take on any Zoom call and it doesn’t matter what you’re wearing on the bottom.
WHAT WOMAN INSPIRES YOU?
I’ve always been inspired by strong, independent, creative women. People like Victoria Beckham and Jennifer Lopez inspire me as do some of the very talented female designers and boutique owners here in Boston.
