She wears her New Yorker-ness brazenly, proudly, on her sleeve. Or rather, under it – on her right shoulder where eight years ago she placed a tattoo to mark her return to New York city after a long stretch in Washington. It’s a rendition of a New York subway token, an image she chose for its double resonance.



“Having grown up here I love the subway, take it everywhere,” she says. “But the reason I picked it for my tattoo was also that on the outside rim of the token it says ‘Good for one fare only’ and that’s my philosophy for life. So it’s a perfect combination of a great philosophy and the city that I love and was born in.”
