The balance between work and play becomes blurrier the deeper I get into 7AM starts and 13hour days. The day old saying “love what you do and you never have to work a day in your life” resonates every day, but still… it’s always nice to escape conference calls and time-sensitive emails. Dug through some…
A while back, I came across an interesting article stating that in twenty years, chocolate will become a rare delicacy. Considering America’s tendency to over-consume, this is hardly surprising. What WON’T be a rare delicacy in twenty years?? But just in case this is to happen, or you just love chocolate as much as I…
Obviously we can’t fly 14+ hours to the Swiss Alps and not get some snowboarding time in. Pretty funny/outrageous since this is literally the third time I’ve ever snowboarded in my life – to say that I’m a novice is um… an understatement.

Pitbull, the company’s major equity owner and an official spokesperson/ambassador kicked…
After a whirlwind of a week in NY, Neil and I flew to SF for a quick weekend gig/getaway. I wasn’t really able to properly celebrate my birthday in NY due to a work initiative, so the kind folks at Monaco Hotel helped us ring it in with some chocolates and champagne. Huge thanks to…
Since receiving a “super mixer” for Christmas, I can’t help but want to whip up baked goods every time I step foot into the kitchen. Luckily, I have an awesome boyfriend (and coworkers) who are willing to indulge in my crazy concoctions and miscellaneous mishaps. Most recently, in a bout of procrastination from finishing a…
