Best Day of the Year?
That would be my birthday (it lasts a week). It’s the longest “day” ever!
Last song you sang out loud when you were by yourself?
Beastie Boys – Sabotage
(last song hummed – Evil Darth Vader song from Lego Star Wars)
Words to Live By:
“There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” – Albert Einstein

Amy Allen Johnson | COO

Guiltiest Pleasure?
Watching 5-10 episodes of Jeopardy all by myself in the middle of the night, okay, with a bowl of ice cream.
Favorite “One-Liners”
“It seemed like a good idea at the time.”
Words to Live By:
“Find a job that you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” – Confucious

Erin Oltmanns | VP of Marketing, Managing Editor

Last song you sang out loud when you were by yourself?
Oh, no, no, no. I don’t sing out loud. Ever.
What scares you?
Food that is both fat-free and sugar-free. My brain simply can’t comprehend the physics and advanced engineering that must go into the creation of stuff like that.
Favorite “One-Liners”
My all-time favorite is from the movie Anchorman, “I’m very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.”

Erica Fehrman | Production Editor

If you could go anywhere for a day, where would you go?
I would go to Italy to sample wine, eat fresh gelato and feel the cultural history
Last song you sang out loud when you were by yourself?
I think it was “Some Beach” by Blake Shelton. Country isn’t my top music choice, but the song is funny.
Any quirky habits?
Where do I start? I sterilize my kitchen like crazy but don’t mind eating brownie batter with raw eggs in it.

Rebecca Delight | Editor

Quirky habits?
I’m a bit of a germ-o-phobic. Hand sanitizer is a must-have in my purse, car, diaper bag… I would basically clip it to my bra strap if I could.
Favorite “One-Liners”
“Nobody puts baby in a corner.” – Dirty Dancing
“You sold our dead parakeet to a blind kid?” – Dumb & Dumber
What scares you?
Snakes, snakes, snakes. Ever since my ninth-grade teacher put his 12-foot python in my hair, I have been petrified of snakes. I will never own one, never touch one and my little boys will NEVER be allowed to chase them through the yard.

Stephanie Peterson | Co-Founder

Have you ever broken any bones?
My arm, I was bucked off a horse.
Guiltiest Pleasure?
Slurpees and the chocolate of the week. This week it’s Junior Mints.
Favorite “One Liners”
“I’m going to jump at you like a spider monkey!” I’m just kidding, I’m not a one-liner type of person.
