What I do at the Meyer Trust:

I prepare the financial statements and board materials as well as support the CFO and Comptroller.

What is your favorite word?

Zucchini. When I was in second grade, I needed to spell zucchini for an assignment. I asked my teacher how to spell zucchini and like a great teacher- she wouldn't tell me, but sent me to the library to look it up for myself. That exercise has served me well…can YOU spell Zucchini without looking it up?

What sound do you love?

The peaceful sound of my children sleeping.

If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates?

I have prepared a place for you.

Who are your favorite heroes of fiction?

Jason Bourne, Jack Ryan & Aslan

What is your present state of mind?

Energetic and hopeful.

What is your motto?

When you are a star, all you can do is shine!

If you won $100 million in the lottery tomorrow, who or what would you give the first 100K to?

Friends of the Children. Their mission to change society one child at a time speaks to my heart. There can be no better investment in our world than investing in our youth.

What musician would you most like to see perform in your living room?

No hesitation, BON JOVI!

What is your secret ambition?

My secret ambition is to not require sleep. Think how your world would change if you slept for recreational purposes only.
