What do you do to unwind after a busy work day?
When I am home in LA, I am simple and try to be in as much of a routine as possible. I travel almost 6 months of the year so I’ve had to perfect my home routine. After a busy work day, I work out at the gym to clear my mind and move my body. I love to do pilates, or walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes, followed by a sauna. Once I’m home I will take a hot shower, eat dinner, and finish up extra work on my couch before I go to bed around 11:30.
You’re making a healthy dinner at home, where are you getting the ingredients? Where are you getting groceries?
If I cook, I will go to Whole Foods and pick up some ingredients like fresh salmon, broccoli, and sweet potatoes for dinner. I rarely cook dinner at home, so I’ll stock up on breakfast food and snacks. Lots of fruit, veggies, chips, yogurts and cottage cheese.

Where do you go in LA to feel a sense of escape?
Most of the time when I need an escape from LA, I’ll get on a flight and go to Texas where I spend half the year (LOL). But when I truly need an escape within LA, I’ll go to a flower shop and pick up fresh flowers for my home, drive to the beach, or go for a hike.
What’s your 5-9 before your 9-5?
I normally wake up around 7 am. I do my skincare, put on a comfortable outfit and walk to get coffee. Then I’ll either put on a workout set & go to Pilates or sit at home at my dining table with my coffee and organize my day, plan content, and current jobs.

It’s a full laptop day and you don’t feel like working from home, where do you go?
Normally a hotel like the Santa Monica Proper. Their service is amazing and I can justify spending money on a coffee or glass of wine later in the day because I’m being “productive”. It's also very aesthetically pleasing and I can shoot content there if needed.
Where do you go for a quick lunch in LA that feels like a quick escape?
This is so basic, but I love Erewhon because I know the ingredients are good, and I can switch up my lunch anytime due to so many options on their menu. I also love Dialog Cafe. The harvest salad is my favorite.

What’s your 5-9 after your 9-5?
If I don’t go to the gym in the morning, I’ll go around 6 or 7, then go home and edit content from the day, finish up any emails, and watch a show or movie. I also go out to dinner with my boyfriend a few times a week because we barely cook.
You're having a weekday dinner with the girls. Where is your favorite spot?
Craigs or Sunset Tower, Tower Bar! Craigs has my favorite steak and pierogi and Sunset Tower has my favorite chopped salad and turkey chili. Both have amazing vibes and wonderful cocktails.

It’s Sunday brunch, where are you going but more importantly, what are you wearing?
For brunch, I love Bluey's in Santa Monica. It’s a really laid back Australian breakfast spot that has the best coffee. I am most likely wearing low rise jeans and a white tank with fun sunglasses and a pop of color in my havaianas.
What’s your favorite workout during the weekend?
My favorite workout over the past few years that has totally transformed my body and mindset around working out is pilates. The movements are so beautiful and help me lengthen and tone. I don’t have to wear sneakers during the workout and normally go barefoot, so I often just slide on my havaianas and go!
What’s your favorite thing to do during the weekend that you can’t do during the weekday?
I work hard during the week so that I can play and have freedom on the weekends without guilt. I love going to fun dinners with the girls or out to a bar with friends. I also love having full days on the weekend to get coffee, groceries, and go to the farmers market or beach.
It’s Saturday and it’s also a beautiful day to go to the beach. Which beach are you going to and what are your favorite things to do there?
I absolutely love Malibu. The bluffs, the water, the rocks! It’s so picturesque. I love El Matador Beach as well as Zuma. Most of the time I’ll take pictures, play music, and walk along the water.
What’s your weekend philosophy? What’s the best way to spend it?
Recharging, undivided attention to my loved ones and friends, and resetting on Sunday.
