Coffee or tea? And what do you put in it?
I like strong black coffee and put nothing else in it!
What is your go-to breakfast?
On a typical day, I’ll have a MOSH bar for breakfast. If I go out to breakfast, I’ll usually order oatmeal or eggs.
Tell us about your workout routine.
I work out after I meditate in the morning and sit in silence for a while. I mix up my routine quite a bit between Pilates, strength training, balance work, the treadmill or Lifecycle exercise bike. Sometimes it’s just walking, which I love doing the most.
How many hours do you sleep on a typical night?
6-8 hours.
How do you de-stress?
I love to go for a walk where I can talk and call someone, usually either one of my brothers or a girlfriend.
According to your phone, what’s your daily average screen time from last week?
I have never looked this up and would prefer not to know.
What app do you use the most?
Instagram.
When’s the last time you took a day off? What did you do?
I went and visited a friend about two weeks ago, which was big for me and I loved it.
What’s one thing your company is doing to prioritize employee wellness?
I give people the ability to work from home and I am a really flexible boss if I do say so myself.
What’s your favorite treat?
Popcorn.
Show us a photo of your happy place.
