In addition to being a community manager, I do a lot of freelance work- or, should I say, guru work. (You’ll see what I mean below.) And before I found a nice home at a proper company, I was doing freelancing full-time. I get loads of questions about how I got started in the freelance …
Month: April 2013
Lately I’ve been in a state of food malaise, which is very rare for me. Salads, which I often devour, have just seemed kind of blah. I think it’s because lately I’ve been relying on packaged salads from Whole Foods or the same thrown together mix of greens in between meetings and activities. Last night, …
This afternoon I got together with some friends to celebrate our reprieve from wintry weather (in April!) with some yoga in Cheesman Park. My friend Jessica Owens is working her way up through the Denver yoga teacher scene, so we were lucky to snag a free, “private” (quotations because we were in public!) session with …
Do you ever crave chocolate at really inconvenient, even inappropriate, times? For me, it’s always at 11pm when I’m working on a midnight deadline, or in between meetings when I don’t have time to cook something up myself and certainly don’t have time to step out.

If you are ever in Denver, you MUST visit this cute little restaurant for caipirinhas, arroz con pollo (if you’re …
Spent the last few days traveling out to the East Coast. So green, but not too spring-like as of yet. After landing in Boston and spending the night with Lucy and Hannah, we jumped in the car and took a road trip through Vermont, stopping to see my family in Burlington, to Montreal, Canada. It …
When I turned in my freelance kicks to become a full time community manager, I was on the receiving end of lots of confused looks and questions. “So, you like, manage a pool?” One friend of mine asked. As awesome as being poolside all day would be, my job is even more awesome. My background …
Almost two weeks into April and we’re still getting snow! To celebrate the snow day (rather than cry like I wanted!), I went to one of my favorite places in the city, Lucile’s Creole Cafe. Let me tell ya something: I already REALLY want to visit New Orleans, but every time I go here, my …
