About Me

I grew up in an artsy family of five in Los Angeles, surrounded by warm weather, friendly people and Laker glory. After high school, I left my comfort zone and moved to Burlington to study at the University of Vermont for nine months, but bolted when offered the opportunity of moving to New York City. I graduated from the Parsons School of Design with a Bachelors of Business Administration in Strategic Design and Management. By day, I focus on discovering speakers for the many TED Conferences and at night I pair NBA players with their look-a-likes on www.nbadoppelgangers.com.
