I'm a dreamer, fashion lover, tea drinker, perfectionist and self-proclaimed nerd. I read too much, sleep more than that and have a sick obsession with high heels. An original gossip girl.
What is unique that's not in your bio?
My arms bend in a freakish direction, my feet can't fully turn out and if you stick around long enough I'm bound to make you laugh at least once!
What's your favorite accomplishment?
My article was published on the front page of my college newspaper and of course getting the internship at Trend Hunter!
How do you define cool?
A person that is unique, independent and confident.
For example, Lady Gaga may be on the verge of insanity but no matter how outlandish she dresses/acts/sings she does so with confidence. Gaga alone has created more than a handful of trends and even though they're not the "norm" she's still pretty badass in my book.
I say—stand out Lady Gaga, stand out!
What is your secret to uncovering trends?
Waking up to my computer with the internet already loaded. Listening to the radio while having a million conversations with people. And of course, just being overly observant.
What do you enjoy most about Trend Hunter?
The weirdest and wildest trends! Spend a day on Trend Hunter and you'll never again have an awkward moment with someone. Just mention the nutty trend you recently read and I guarantee they haven't heard about it before.
What is your favorite trend?
Hands down, the Inflatable Lingerie. Probably the best invention since Kleenexes, the under wire, push up and water bras.
How do you reset to be creative?
Sleep, eat and repeat.
What inspires or excites you?
The smell of rain hitting freshly cut grass, long walks along the beach, Celine Dion in concert and the sound of a baby's first laugh.
In all honesty, none of those things inspire me, except for maybe Celine Dion, quite as much as a good book. Give me any well written literature and I'm engrossed for several hours. I honestly wish I had enough time to fully indulge in every single novel out there.

Predict something awesome for 2020?
I can predict something for 2012, not so much 2020.
