My favorite thing about working with clients is helping pinpoint problems and whiteboard solutions. Helping to solve problems is also why I serve on the board of Homestretch – nothing’s more gratifying than helping families in need to pull themselves up. When I’m not in DC, you might find me visiting my hometown of New Orleans, especially for the great food, classic cocktails, Mardi Gras, and my beloved Saints!"
