You’re fairly new to LA, having spent time living in New York beforehand. What do you love about living here? What do you miss about New York?
“When I was younger, I was very resistant to ever moving to LA.. I was totally in love with the energy and pace of New York and didn’t feel any of that in LA.. But as I traveled out here more often, I realized that this city has different, but really beautiful things to offer. The pace is a little slower, you can enjoy the outdoors all year long, and you can have more living space. I love gardening and I am an avid equestrian, so I appreciate that I can do that all year long. Also there aren’t many states here in the US where all you have to do is drive a few hours from the beach and then you're in the snow."
