Questions
What is your alma mater's mascot and what do you think about it?
The FSU Seminole. Its ACC history runs deep, but my family bleeds Orange & Blue and they let me go to the other school. Confused? I'm from the South, let's talk college sports.
My post-work drink is __________ whereas my drink on a first date is ___________ !
My post-work drink is Maker's with a splash of pineapple whereas my drink on a first date is a good beer.
'Hipster' or 'Square'? (Or to clarify, are you left-handed or right-handed? Are they related??
I'm a right-handed 'hipster' who thrives below 14th Street, but I earn my greenbacks in Midtown. So, yes, it's all related, baby.
What or who is your corporate crush?!
Google!

If nycTIES was a type of food/cuisine, it would be:

My SMARTPHONE is:
one hell of a lifesaver for me and functions better on the user's compliance.
Name one thing or more that your roommate does NOT already know about you?
They both don't know how many times a week I clean the toilet. Just use the public restroom enough in the city to know how much I value my own throne.
What do you really think about brunch in NYC?
Still learning the in's and out's of it since I work in the arts I don't have a M-F life... more like W-M life.
I'm tied to NYC because _______________
of its Founders. Alex and Matt are pretty cool dudes.
Describe a moment/experience when I knew I was a true fan of nycTIES
I was helping Jessica Brenner with an event back in Fall of 2009 when Dan Gardella helped me trek from Columbus Circle to the venue with tons of food in hand... and we somehow got to catch up on life during that time. I'm a fan because of the friendships.
What is the nycTIES time commitment like for you?
Since the Summer of 2009, I was able to go in and out of being 'active'. It's a small and awesome organization that allows you the freedom to help when you can which is important to me. You know? Freedom. Like Braveheart.
