About Author

This fall, the one thing I absolutely, positively cannot live without is...
"My camera. I love fall and all the great photo ops that come with the season. With all the pumpkin-carving, apple-cider drinking, and colors changing it's a great time to take pictures."

Next up on my Netflix is...
"West Wing Season 7. Yeah, I'm a little late to the game, but now I'm addicted. I can't get enough of CJ, Tobey, Josh, Leo, and President Barlet."

Latest guilty pleasure...
"Leaving the city on the weekends. In the summer it was the beach, now that it's cooler there's camping and Upstate adventures. It's what keeps me sane."

The one song I can listen to over and over...and over to is...
""Baby" by Os Mutantes or pretty much anything by Fleetwood Mac."
