A week ago today, I was signing papers to take ownership of this beautiful lady built in 1891 (at least I think I did - I was still running a fever and apparently had the flu 🤷&zwj;♀️) #CastroCasa is gonna get all the love in the coming years. Stay

Had some fun testing out the lighting at the Capitol for an event next week. How magical to work in a building so majestic and full of history. #nyscapitol

Cleaning up files at work and I’ve forgotten all the photos I’ve taken over the years. ❤️ @lorraine_dk beautiful kitchen.
