I gave up coffee more than two years ago. I love green tea— matcha is my go-to drink. It’s very zen and I welcome all opportunities that promote calm and focus. Casual Chic or Power Suit? I love both. I dress for my mood and the occasion. Lately, I’ve been mixing and matching gym clothes with work clothes, like yoga pants with ruching, a silk top and a pair of stilletos—now that’s a power suit! Boutique Shops or Flea Markets? Both.

I love how invigorated I feel afterwards. Fiction Novels or Autobiographies? I love nonfiction, personal stories from writers and comedians like David Sedaris, Adam Carolla and Chelsea Handler.
