I've always been fascinated with this word...creativity. Who has it? How does it come about? How does a company foster it? These questions led me to pick up this month's Harvard Business Review to read "… Continue

Traveling around from place to place, I've developed a love for nice boutique hotels. Doesn't have to be fancy schmancy, just give me the necessities - a shower with good water pressure and a comfortable bed with just hard enough pillows and I'm a happy woman. Throw in free wi-fi, premium bath products, and some good design elements and now you've given me an… Continue
Cuz Kara and I went to Wasa Sushi Thursday night in Irvine to catch up and hang out. Let me preface this post by telling you that I'm a HUGE sushi fan - nothing beats salmon eggs popping in my mouth and that creamy, velvety sea urchin resting on my tongue.
