Where did you grow up?
Flushing, Queens, NY and Seattle, Washington.

What do you do for a living?
I design and fabricate my own jewelry line, The Things We Keep.
How did you get started?

If you were going to eat your last meal in New York, where and what would you eat?
Can I pick two entrees? Shanghai Cafe for XLB and Paulie Gee’s for their Hellboy pizza with extra Mike’s Hot Honey, capped with the always-and-forever-warm brownie sundae from The Chocolate Room. Yeah, weird mix.
If you could have a sleepover with anyone who has ever existed, who would it be?
Bill Nye The Science Guy. We’d have so much to talk about!
If your life was a TV show, what would be the theme song?
Notorious B.I.G. – Juicy. Yep, not kidding.
