spaces, and aging! What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? I’ve got too much brain in my head! I think too much. Overthinking makes a big deal of everything; I spend too much time over-analyzing. I know worrying will never change the outcome; still it’s kind of hard to practice what I preach. What is the trait you most deplore in others? Believe it or not, it’s not easy for me to deal with all types of people; I don’t do well with people who are cold, too laid back, or those who think they know everything. Which living person do you most admire? My parents! They are two opposites that attract and complete one another. What is your greatest extravagance? Shopping is my guilty pleasure! I cannot resist snatching something I like the second I lay my eyes on it. When I gotta have it, I gotta have it! Which words or phrases do you most overuse? ‘cute’, ‘gorgeous’, ‘doll’, and ‘super’! Definitely over used! When were you happiest? Life is a rollercoaster of ups and downs. With every passing day I get more of an understanding of my being and my surroundings, which makes me more content. In the process, I face some obstacles and that’s when sadness, anger, or disappointment may come in. However, I’m at my happiest when I’m around my family, my baby, and my husband. That’s my comfort zone and my positive energy. Which talent would you most like to have? Illustrator or a graphic designer! I wish I could transform my thoughts into art! What would you consider your greatest achievement? Achievements aren’t measurable, they are completely personal, and there’s no customary standard or limit. I reached the peak of my success in my career and therefore decided to move on towards a new path. I chose to pursue consulting in marketing and social media, focused more on my fashion blog, started a styling business, and also had a baby! Those are my achievements—they will keep growing and changing every day. Where would you most like to live? Paris: since as long as I remember I was fascinated with France and the French; their elegance, sophistication, and even the language, I’m definitely a French soul!
