What are you up to these days? I recently started my own business as a fashion and lifestyle PR consultant. I feel like there is so much great stuff happening in SF, but no one outside the city limits knows about it.

Where do you get your local gossip? I need to be up on, you know, “things” so I read a ton of blogs. Mandatory are Refinery29 for fashion and SFist for news.

Where's your go-to date place? Warakubune for sushi and then Sweet Inspiration for dessert. I like to sit close to my man at the sushi bar and we both love cake.

Where do you go to relax and get away from it all? Grand View Park at the top of Moraga Street. It’s an Inner Sunset secret gem.

What do you get obsessive about here in SF? No coffee shops are open late. I know with that comes the crazies, but am I one of them if I want coffee after 9 p.m.?

What local merchant have you been meaning to check out? Rand + Statler – the owners of Azalea are killing it with their boutiques and I am always happy to see local merchants succeed.

What would you change about SF? The hills would have slides.
