An awesome place I've visited:

New Zealand, among others, because the scenery is spectacular, the food is terrific, and there are all sorts of grown-up kid things to do, such as sky dive and bungee jump and go off-roading and get strapped inside a giant ball and rolled down a hill!

The movie I've watched the most times:

The Princess Bride

My life history in 5 sentences or fewer:

Grew up in Newport Beach, CA Went to college in Beantown and after a brief visit back to Cali, returned to Boston for business school Then I lived in Boston for a few years after bschool and moved to NYC five and a half years ago I absolutely love New York but I also get away often (ski or travel in winter and Hamptons in the summer)

My first concert / My dream concert:

First concert was Billy Idol, sometime in the mid/late 80s I think. Whenever it was, he was still cool and I remember the stage had a huge fist suspended above it that turned over and flipped everybody off periodically. It was epic for me at the time.

For me, a first date no-no is:

Not having fun

I secretly want to be:

A successful artist of some kind. Or a lion tamer.
