I'm motivated by
creating better living spaces for people of all ages.
My proudest accomplishment is
my son Ben - he is the light of my life. He is always looking for ways to help people connect and make the world better.
The best book I've ever read was
At Home in Mitford. When the world is a little too crazy, you can go to Mitford and sooth your soul.
