Marc's birthday is New Year's Eve, so we always throw a party. It's tradition at this point. And whatever we end up calling it every year - Cocktails & Countdowns, Tipsy & Toasty, Drinks & Dancing, or Wining & Dining - I love the way it's always a fun excuse to get dressed up and raise a glass to my favorite person.

DINE & WINE
To kick off the DINE & WINE playlist, Aretha sings it best: “I’m drinking again.”

BEACH, PLEASE
Currently seeking sunshine and summertime.
I started the BEACH, PLEASE playlist while on vacation in Vieques, Puerto Rico to capture the feeling of beach-hopping. It’s electronic with a more laid-back vibe, perfect for a day party spent in the sun and/or the sand. What can I say? Island life inspired me.

I am, however, super excited to share my LOVE playlist on the SOUNDTRACK page.

LATE SUMMER/EARLY FALL SOUNDTRACKS
I believe that life is meant to be accompanied by a soundtrack.
I enjoy playing background music for every occasion and non-occasion. I have personal playlists for brunch with friends, down time around the house, dance parties, napping on airplanes, hanging out with my parents… Music sets the mood, and it makes everything feel more fluid.
