What drew you to Accelity?
I pride myself on honesty as a key part of my craft, and Accelity’s website truly reflects that. It felt more like a conversation than a sales pitch—honest, relatable, and candid, with the kind of jargon we millennials use daily. I didn’t feel the need to be polished or pretend to be someone I’m not; it genuinely felt like they promote the ‘come as you are’ belief, as long as you excel at what you do.
Who would you switch places with for one day?
A man—any man, but preferably a wealthy, handsome one (LOL).
What’s your secret talent?
Sleeping all day and coming alive at night—maybe I’m a vampire! I also love listening to music and have a knack for discovering mid-song that it’s a sample, and then hunting down the original track for confirmation.
What is your guilty pleasure tv/music/movie?
Love After Lockup and Tell Me Lies have me in a chokehold right now. I just finished the season finale of Tell Me Lies, and instead of screaming, I grinned—revenge is truly a dish best served cold. Well played, Stephen! I’m an eclectic soul, so Khruangbin and BadBadNotGood get me through life. As for movies, Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2, 500 Days of Summer, and all things horror/suspense are among my cinematic favorites.
Where is your favorite spot in Chicago?
My home—haha! But honestly, I’m not sure if I have a single favorite. What I can say is that the Ralph Lauren restaurant never, ever gets old for me.
What is your favorite Chicago summer activity?
My favorite Chicago summer activity is definitely our boat scene on Lake Michigan, especially the Playpen.
If a friend/colleague were to bump into you in public, where would you most likely be?
You’d probably find me at an art exhibit or a swanky restaurant!
