Pros: I write about travel, hotels, festivals, and food for NBC Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego. The Discovery Prize in American Humor and a regional writing Emmy nomination are two bullet points on my CV. I'm that person who will kiss your dog even though I just met your dog. I pre-like everything. Cons: I'll sometimes list pros and cons rather than write an actual bio. I'll use "CV" even though I am not British and should probably say "résumé." Eating the leftover French fries off your plate is my thing. I regularly ruin punchlines then make the situation worse by restarting the joke three times.
