Q&A
Büro member since:
2016
Which Büro location do you work out of?
Midtown
What does your company do, and what is your role?
I'm a registered dietician. I do private counseling for clients, corporate seminars and programs, menu/kitchen consulting, and consult for organizations like Marlins, Ocean Reef Club, and private schools.
What do you like best about your job?
Inspiring sustainable nutrition change in people - changing lives forever!
What is your business motto/philosophy?
Just keep swimming.
Miami native since:
1988 - What up South Miami Hospital
What are your favorite Miami hangouts and activities?
SoHo House brunch - woof. I need to train for that days before. I love anything in which I can include my dog; it's a bit weather prohibitive in the summer, but I love taking her to Merrick Park or for a walk around the UM campus. It's like being with a celebrity; she gets great attention.
What's one (surprising, interesting, funny, awesome) thing you'd like for Büro members to know about you?
I'm from Miami and NOT LATIN! But I'm marrying a Columbian in 2 months :) Also I minored in French and Linguistics. Useless.
What do you like best about working at Büro?
I love the stimulation. All the cool people buzzing around, and having my own space, but also the freedom to have private consults. Also being a stone's throw away from my friends at Social Thinkking.
What crazy adventure would you want to take?
I'm not really one for outdoor adventures (in pre-school I wrote that my favorite school activity was "indoor play") but I'd love to spend a week as a perfume tester ("nose") for a French perfumerie. Specific enough for you?
What are your secret survival strategies?
I have at least 3 edible things in my purse at any time. I'm terrified of being hungry. I also have unlimited delivery from Instacart; worth it. I'll order random things from there 2-3x/week just to make sure I have enough food. You would think I was a grizzly bear.
What's your comfort food?
Almond croissants from True Loaf or Panther Coffee.
What movies do you watch, or reference over and over?
ALL of the Harry Potter movies, Monty Python's Holy Grail, and Mean Girls.
