We’d love if you could share a few secrets to your pinning success — any rules, dos, or don’ts to follow?
"I'm not sure if I have any 'secrets' per se — I try to pin images that I can attribute and credit properly. I don't generally pin something I just found on Tumblr without any credit. Sometimes, I'll break that rule, but for the most part I try very hard to respect people's work and give credit where credit is due. I don't think there's any hard and fast rules for Pinterest — I think being respectful of others is important, don't 'hog' the Pinterest stream by pinning a ton of images all at once, especially if they are images of your own."

Who are some other Pinterest power players to watch out for?
"Well, I know who I like to follow: Bonnie Tsang has a great eye; I love Ban.do's kind of irreverent, fun, and often retro-inspired fashion pins; Aaron de Simone has beautiful pins. I don't always follow just 'Power Pinners' — I follow a lot of pinners I just really resonate with. I love pins from people like Nikole Herriott, Nicole Franzen, and Angela Ritchie — there are just too many to name!"

When you aren’t pinning, where can we find you?
"Mostly blogging — either from my sofa or at Makeshift Society. I love hiking with my dog Lucy every weekend at Fort Funston and the Alameda Flea Market. Oh, and at a local bar that shall remain nameless because it can't get any more crowded."
