I always liked the idea of leadership and being a captain.

I always loved the retail entertainment sector, like FAO Schwartz, where it's a little more exciting than just going into a little corner deli candy place.

My favorite place in the world is my dad's house in Montauk.

I think people always want candy, whether you're a kid or an adult.

I have many friends who had kids solo, who adopted, who used surrogates - no one was judging them - it's a new world!

To save money on gifts, give someone their favorite candy in a beautiful, customized vessel with a personalized tag. It's sweet and always appreciated.

I've been entrepreneurial since middle school. I was always arranging bake sales, dances and school trips to raise money for the Dalton School.

Being in meetings - that feels like work. But finding candy, being in the store - that's fun, and it drives me.

Oprah Winfrey is such an inspiring person.

I find being a manager really challenging. For instance, I don't enjoy some of the administrative tasks that go along with hiring and firing.

Anytime you can promote young artists and designers is a cool thing.

On really hot days, I try to motivate friends and family to come into the pool for an aqua jogging session which I teach. Aqua jogging is a great way to avoid the impact of regular walking or jogging on land. This is especially beneficial for those who have joint pain or who are healing from an injury.
