COFFEE OR COCKTAIL: My go-to cocktail is a Manhattan with a Luxardo cherry.
FAVORITE NEW DENVER RESTAURANT: Check out “Departure” that just opened in
Cherry Creek. It is a very mod space with a new take on Asian cuisines.
FAVORITE NON-RESTAURANT DENVER SPOT: Look for me at the Avery Brewery. NEXT
BIG THING IN APARTMENT LIVING? Cold storage lockers for fresh food delivery.
WHY APARTMENTS? We provide the incredibly important service of home to
hundreds of thousands of Colorado families. What could be more engaging
than that? WRITE A FORTUNE COOKIE FORTUNE: “Expect good weather tomorrow,
plan to go out and play!” SUPER HERO POWER: I can make beer disappear
rapidly. NEW WAYS TO LOOK FOR NEW TALENT: No change…I’m always looking for
people in my life that find personal joy in giving joy to others. KEEPS YOU
UP AT NIGHT: Blaze, my French bull dog keeps me up. That little pig snores.
STORE IN MALL TO FIND NEW TALENT: I would stop by the Verizon store.
