All of a sudden I have a ton of things to post. Here’s the latest for those of you who can’t
get enough of me (jk). A 16 minute video
of me… and a few other folks. With about 25 views, so not really my five minutes of fame. But it is my first youtube video, I think.
This was for a work thing. I was asked to be on a panel for the Boston Disrupt CRE (stands for Commercial Real Estate), I think in October. This one was a bit different than the regular events I participate in. I usually talk about my specialty. But in this case, we were being asked specific questions that were being asked of every panel throughout the day. And each panel consisted of folks from all different industries. So some of the questions were really challenging to answer for our subject matter. Like what is the app you cannot live without for your job. Doesn’t really apply for me. I was quite impressed with myself and the answers I came up with - luckily we had the questions ahead of time. I had limited time to really come up with my answers. I remember doing most of the thinking on a Delta shuttle flight a few days before the event. And ended up referencing the in-flight magazine they provided.

I know the panel session was recorded but have no idea where the
video is or if it was even posted. I had
worn a dress and remember being challenged sitting on the tall stools we were
given during the session. It was really
challenging to keep the legs crossed at the ankles. I wish it had been the usual set-up with
chairs and table. Luckily the post-show
was much more comfortable. This is an
interview of myself, Barbra Batshalom, who happened to be my old boss at the
non-profit I worked at when I first came to Boston, and Grey Lee who moderated
the panel. The third panelist had to
leave early so wasn’t able to participate in this post-session interview.
I just came across this video via our company newsletter that was
issued this week. Glad to see the video surface, kindof. It’s strange watching yourself and to hear yourself. I don’t think I really sound or look like
that but it’s all about your angle of perception. This one was interesting because we didn’t
know what questions were going to be asked so remember thinking I came up with
pretty good answers on the fly. Plus I
was still in talking mode from the session we literally came out of a minute
prior. The sound guy who was sitting
opposite us behind the camera really perked up at the beginning when I said my
favorite TV show is Walking Dead. I think
he even gave me a thumbs up which you can tell caught my eye if you look
closely. I’ve been finding I can watch the video in snippits. Maybe I’ll save it for the commute home.
Enjoy!

Nice job, kiddo! Never hurts to be both spectacularly professional AND gorgeous. I'll never look at buildings in the same way after viewing the video. M
