What do you enjoy most about working at Thinking Organized?
I love working one-on-one with my students and clients, helping them make strides toward their goals and forming new habits.

What has been your greatest personal and/or professional achievement and why?
This is a hard one for me. Each year, I try to set a personal goal that excites me. Some years, it has been biking the five boroughs of NYC; other years, it has been to read 54 books (averaging one per week). Currently, I’m writing again, which is a huge personal achievement of mine and one that I’m proud to share with you!

What interesting fact would your clients & colleagues be most surprised to learn about you?
An interesting fact that is very close to my heart is my much-loved four-year-old pup. He is a Xoloitzcuintli, commonly called the Mexican Hairless. I know I am unapologetically biased in saying that he is the best dog in the world. Also, in the last few years, I have worked to develop a few homemade dog biscuit recipes that have been an actual treat to my adorable pup and a fun baking adventure for me.
