Q&A:
Greatest honor: Being mom to my two young boys; getting to see the world through their eyes and having a legitimate excuse to act like the giant kid that I am.
Most daring adventure: Riding out a tropical storm while onboard a sailboat in the Carribean Sea.
When the going gets tough: the tough gets going! Running, spinning, hiking, swimming – nothing beats a good dose of endorphins to get things back on the right track.
Favorite vacation spot: Port Clyde, Maine.
Favorite quote: "The person who is waiting for something to turn up might want to start with their shirt sleeves." - Garth Henrichs.
Proudest PR achievement: Securing a 300% increase in positive press coverage – including a cover story in the Wall Street Journal -- and orchestrating a total turnaround in terms of industry analyst support for one of my clients in less than a year's time.
