What is your biggest vice, and how do you deal with it?
I have very little patience, especially for fools…Lots of them in my line of work. ;)
But I work in a bizz where everything is kind of last minute, so I need to find the little patience I have and work with that. It usually works out.
How do you navigate through difficult situations?
I stop and think. Listen to my gut and if possible I’ll sleep on it… and I’ll ask my hubby for advice or thoughts on the matter.
Name one of your favourite people in the world and why this person is one of them?
My bestie Sara<3 because she’s a bad ass boss lady and friend.
What do you do to stay/get in shape?
Absolutely nothing!
What was your proudest moment and why?
Many proud moments but starting my own business in the middle of the recession in 2009 and having all my friends and family supporting me…especially while I was getting sued twice by my former employer. ( I won the lawsuits )
Which city is cooking you the best meal and where?
Oh that’s a tricky one:.so many good places to mention …but I’m going to say Istanbul! Turkish food is so misunderstood. It’s not only kebab and köfte.
