I loved working on the event, where we displayed our products for editors, because I got to hand-craft many of the elements that were used: I hand painted all of the signs and beer labels and did a chalk board drawing at the event space. It&#8217;s always fun to get away from the computer every once and a while and make something with your hands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019m inspired by\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nLive music. I love any and all live music. Also by roaming the streets of New York&#8211;New Yorkers are the taste makers of the world (don\u2019t tell the Texans I said so, though) and it is impossible not to become inspired just by being out and about in New York.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019m passionate about\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nPainting, yoga, water sports (water skiing and wakeboarding), and traveling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>An uncommon fact about me\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nI am the only red head in my family \u2013 everyone else is brunette !<\/p>\n<p><strong>My favorite place to hang out in New York City is\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nI could not possibly pick. One of my favorite things about living in New York is trying new restaurants and if you know me well, you know I can talk about food and eating all day long. I cannot handle how beautiful <a title=\"ABC Kitchen\" href=\"http:\/\/www.abckitchennyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">ABC Kitchen&#8217;s<\/a> space is and the food is unreal. But I am a sucker for a dive bar and absolutely love <a title=\"The Rusty Knot\" href=\"http:\/\/www.therustyknot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Rusty Knot<\/a>. <a title=\"Tipsy Parson\" href=\"http:\/\/tipsyparson.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tipsy Parson<\/a> and <a title=\"Westville\" href=\"http:\/\/www.westvillenyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Westville<\/a> are my go-to neighborhood favorites. I also could sit on the <a title=\"BarButo\" href=\"http:\/\/www.barbutonyc.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Barbuto<\/a> patio all night long. I could go on and on\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>My style is\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nClassic bohemian. I could live in neutrals and classics that last from year to year, but the Austinite in me leans bohemian.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Working at UncommonGoods, I\u2019ve learned\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nHow important it is not to compromise on your values in the workplace. Among other things, I am so proud of the fact that our products don\u2019t harm animals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Would you rather\u2026Have a lifetime supply of Tootsie Pops OR a one-time shopping spree at your favorite clothing store with no spending limit? <\/strong><br \/>\nAlthough I have a serious Tootsie Pop addiction (1 a day but I am trying to kick the habit), I think I would have to choose clothing store with no spending limit.
