Hometown

Highland, Ind. For those unfamiliar with the Hoosier State, that’s in the northwest corner (a/k/a The Region).

Books

Anything by Amor Towles – some writers just know how to string sentences together. Aspirationally, Sittin’ In: Jazz Clubs of the 1940s and 1950s. Good inspiration for when I open one of my own.

TV Show

“Three’s Company.” I know, I know – but once upon a time, TV wasn’t required to be art.

Quote

“It is so nice when you can sit with someone and not have to talk.”
– Harry Burns, When Harry Met Sally

Outside of Work

You may find me going out to see live jazz, muddling through a run or a bike ride, visiting Door County, Wis., or attending most DePaul basketball games (which I think constitutes being part of a support group more than a fanbase these days, but I digress). But mostly, spending time with family – including two rescue pups.
