Hello and welcome to Mommy Scoreboard. It’s been several years but I remember starting my college application essay with the sentence, “You can always find me with a pen in one hand a basketball in the other.” I enjoy writing but the sport of basketball has been my ultimate joy. Fast forward and now I am the proud parent of three children, a happily married woman and an accomplished recreational basketball player.

I grew up in my family owned Brownstone (Hey NYC 🖐🏾) so we celebrated all of the holidays together in our historical home. Each room, each nick in the hardwood floors and pot in the kitchen has a story to tell. As a child on Christmas Day, I would go from floor to floor visiting…
Recently in a team meeting (work related) I included the question, “How are you doing, really?” as the first agenda item. I meet with my team regularly and also 1:1 with each member so we have established team norms, community agreements, core values, goals and a plethora of inside jokes. We typically begin our team…
