What store(s) do you work at? I work mostly at the Corvallis store, but am periodically in Albany and Eugene.
Why do you like working here? My favorite part of working in the store is by far helping people find what they want. I especially like it when customers come in not having any idea what they want, but needing a change, and then leaving feeling great about themselves in their new items. What are your favorite brands? There are so many that are my favorites, but I tend to have a lot of Diego Di Lucca shoes and James Jeans in my closet!
I can't live without my: I could not live without my Emu boots in the winter. They keep my feet so warm. I wear them to all my kid's sporting events and I am always warm and comfortable. In my free time, I:In my free time I love to golf (although my free time is very limited). I also read alot.
My favorite movie: I don't have a favorite movie, but I love to watch movies. Anything except science fiction and war movies.
Any pets we should know about? I have two cats and one dog.
Do you have siblings or kids? I have three boys ages 12, 9 and 5. They are all three very active in many sports thereby significantly reducing my free time mentioned above.:) Although, we spend our summer evenings golfing as a family.
Who would you invite to your dream dinner party? I would invite John Travolta, President Obama, Tiger Woods and Author Judi Picolout because I admire all of them and I would love to talk to each of them. I would also invite Matt Damon just to look at!
