When I was 10, I wanted to be: Ballet Dancer (turns out, I don't have the natural grace for that career path)
Go-to take out spot: Saigon Hustle in Houston for their steak vermicelli bowls!
If I were to pick one show to re-watch 100 times it would be: Ted Lasso. Or Schitt's Creek
Something that brings me joy: Wine nights with friends, my two daughters, and ridiculously good food.
