If you could have dinner with two people, one dead and one living, who would they be? Why?

I would love to have dinner with Julia Child because hopefully she would cook for us and Jim Collins so I can ask him how I can go from being Good to Great.

Proudest Accomplishment: To date, my proudest accomplishment has been successfully training for and completing both the Denver and the Colfax Half Marathons. However, as of the Spring of 2013 my proudest accomplishment will be the completion of my Masters in Environmentally Sustainable Business.

Favorite Book: It’s a toss-up between the 7th Harry Potter book and The Count of Monte Cristo. I love a good adventure story.

Favorite Teacher: Lori Driscoll, Neuroscience Professor at Colorado College.

Favorite Thinker: Jim Collins, author of Good to Great and Good to Great and the Social Sectors

Favorite Colorado Getaway: Family cabin in Red Feather Lakes, CO
