DOB: 16 September, 1977
What do you do: I worry. Quite a lot. And, I’m a designer, brainstormer and one half of the Movable Type team—the other half being my husband, Ben.
Favorite Books: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, Metropolitan Life by Fran Lebowitz, and Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris.
Heroes: Serge Gainsbourg, Dorothy Parker, The Bronte Sisters.
What makes you laugh: The old stand-by response used to be ‘humor at another person’s expense.’ But now that I know better, I’ll stick with safe answers: I’m Alan Patridge, The Kids in the Hall, Christopher Guest films
Charity worth giving to: Best Friends Animal Sanctuary
Five words that sound good: mezcla / bottleneck / imagineering / pamplemousse / licorice
