Outside of work I . . . spend a lot of time with family and especially love being an auntie to my niece and two nephews, and love going to see live music as often as I can.

My favorite spot in Columbus is . . . it’s a bit of a toss up between a few of our great local coffee shops—Stauf’s, The Roosevelt Coffeehouse, and Brioso. Love all three!
