About Me

Yes everyone. It is true. I moved out to LA from NYC. I left the fulfilling and invigorating life of an intellectual property specialist at a Wall Street corporate law firm to an uncertain career in Hollywood. (I am not a sarcastic person, I promise.) After hearing what my paycut was, some would say I need to see a therapist. However, a year, I do not miss the law firm life at all. Frankly, the only thing I miss is the Friday evening cocktail party at my old law firm and being able to afford Taste of Tokyo three nights a week. Wait, I also miss Murray's bagels, and Lombardi's pizza, and Lupa, and the Village Vanguard, and the Bistro Burger, and the Yankees, and the Brooklyn Bridge. I guess I miss the city, just not the old job. Stay tuned.
