What is your favorite "guilty pleasure" movie or TV show?
I'm a sucker for Harry Potter. I went to opening night in Miami and had to navigate among throngs of robed, bespectacled and spell-chanting 12-year old geeks. It was awesome! Other than that, I'll watch absolutely anything that David Attenborough has narrated or that stars Paul Newman.

What song on your iPod would people be most surprised you have?
I was going to say Push It by Salt N Peppa - but come on, that's no surprise. My consistent go-to group is The Flying Burrito Brothers.

What's your favorite word? What is your least favorite word?
Favorite word: curiosity. Least favorite word: dull.

What was your first job?
Washing dishes in my dad's bar.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
Still interesting in learning new things & helping others.

What's your favorite comfort food?
Anything in a bowl with a spoon. Or a warm beverage.

Why do you enjoy working at Averetek?
I get to work with smart people & neat technology that actually solves business problems.

If you could have one superpower what would it be?
To be able to grow delicious and lovely things in any soil or climate.

What is your favorite game show?
I don't really watch any game shows - but every weekend I have to play the news quizzes on NPR's Wait Wait -- Don't Tell Me! Someday I will get Carl Kasell on my home answering machine...

What person are you most inspired by?
My uncle Paul. He works hard, genuinely cares about others, is humble and smiles a lot.

What secret talent do you have?
Cooking without recipes or measuring anything and playing Dr. Mario.

What's the worst gift you ever received?
I've received multiple home manicure sets, all from the same person.
