Three things people may not know about me:
- I was born in Germany.
- I love teaching my dog, Charlie, complex tricks — he can close doors, clean up his toys and press the foot pedal to open the trash and throw things away (if he’s properly compensated with treats!).
- I love horror movies – voluntarily scaring myself is somehow relaxing.
