This summer I had the honor of being included in Jezebel Magazine's Most Eligible Atlantans feature! I was so excited to be part of such a cool group of talented folks from around the city and had fun celebrating this annual feature. The magazine included just a few prompts for each person, so I though it would be fun to include my full interview below!
