Your most embarrassing date moment?
First things first: I purchased a pair of "sparkle shorts" to wear on my date so I could make a memorable first impression. We went to a bar, but the guy was pretty conservative, so getting him to open up was a bit of a task. After a few drinks, I finally pulled him (literally) onto the dance floor. He finally loosened up a bit and started to show signs that he was actually having fun. Then Beyoncé came on, and I couldn't resist showcasing my moves — one of which happened to split my sparkle shorts up the back. Unfortunately, I didn't notice this, and I continued dancing. It wasn't until I was getting into a cab, and a caring pedestrian screamed, "HEY SPARKLE SHORTS, NICE a**!" that I realized what happened. My date turned an even deeper shade of pink than the underwear I had just shown to the entire bar.

What career accomplishment are you most proud of?
Prior to my job at LivingSocial, I worked for SiriusXM where I produced and helped co-host a kids show on Channel 78! I had a small following of "fans" below the age of 10 who would call me almost daily. It was really sweet to hear how much it made their day just by talking to them live on the air. I loved every second of that!
