1.Tell us why anyone would want come to your hometown?
Watching the world through the eyes of my 2 year old, hearing my 6 year old say that you are the most beautiful girl in the world, exchanging an inside joke with my husband just by looking at him across a room full of people, getting nostalgic over childhood memories with my sister, listening to my mom worry about me like I’m still a kid, looking at my dad play with my children.

2.What are the (2) most important things in your closet and why?
Expectation: We always start with grand plans for our date nights – a walk on the beach, candle light dinner, dancing… Reality: However with our busy schedules, it often ends up with us having Thai take-out from our favorite hole in the wall restaurant followed by binge watching our favorite shows on Netflix. Quality time spent while talking, laughing, and eating with my husband is all I need for a perfect date.

3.What do you love to cook and why?
Practicing Bikram yoga and meditation helps me relax by establishing the mind-body connection and nourishing the soul. Over time, yoga has taught me the art of controlled breathing which has an immediate effect on diffusing emotional energy and slowing down heart rate, hence leading to a state of calmness. Praying helps me relax by allowing me to spiritually connect and align with God. It releases the power of control to an entity greater than oneself.

4.If you had an extra hour each day, what would you do?
My personal style is an amalgam of my life influences and reflects my personality and heritage. It is simple, classic, modest, and elegant. I believe that style is an artistic expression of self and if you aren’t comfortable with what you are wearing, it will show. I love timeless pieces. Coco Chanel is one of my favorite style icons and in her words: “A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous”.
