Magnify

Words I live by: “Focus on where you put your love.”

3 items on my nightstand: L’Athene face cream, Travel & Leisure, reading glasses.

Signature scent: Roger & Gallet Cedrat.

My roller derby name would be: Pollyanna Crash (A hopeless optimist; a danger on skates!)

I still can’t get the hang of: Rollerskating. Nearly broke my tailbone in May!

My favorite feminist: Maria Montessori: not only the first female doctor in Italy and a fab feminist speaker, but she also revolutionized modern education—a true powerhouse.

The best thing about where I live: Beach in six minutes or coffee at Joe’s on the Upper West Side (I go back & forth between NY & Charleston).

Red, white or beer? Prosecco!

Favorite clothing stores: Everything at Beba Luxe on James Island & Utopia on King.

Walker, runner or couch potato? Yogi! I’m a Jivamukti junkie.

Favorite restaurant: Monza (my son and I love to watch them make pizza) and FIG.

Right now I’m reading: The Maytrees by Annie Dillard.

The food I never want to eat again: Crab. I realize I’m in the minority here.

The worst idea I’ve ever had: Buying a house at the height of the market.
