FUN FACTS ABOUT SHARISA
If you could choose to hire one, which one would it be: maid, chef or hair stylist/makeup artist? I would definitely choose a hair stylist/makeup artist! I am super crazy about cleaning and organizing to the point that it’s just obnoxious, and I totally love trying new recipes and eating new foods. Even though I attended cosmetology school, there is something so fun about getting your hair and makeup done by someone else!
What is your nickname? Risa, Ris, Risy and Sheesh are obviously all derived from my name. But my favorite is probably “Precious”. When I was in high school, my volleyball coach was always telling the referees “she couldn’t have possibly done that! Look at her! She’s precious!” every time I got something called on me. It stuck and my dad still calls me Precious.
What is the neatest place you have ever been? I don’t get out much, but I did get to live in Hawaii for about a year and there are some pretty amazing places that are absolutely beautiful up on the North Shore. The neatest thing about it was the weather- always warm and sunny, that’s my kind of place!
What is your favorite game? Volleyball would have to be my all-time favorite game; I grew up playing in high school, club and college. Lately though, it’s peek-a-boo and hide-and-seek with my son, Merrick.
What is your favorite food? My absolute favorite food would have to be Fettuccini Alfredo. The only thing coming close to it is cheesecake. Plain cheesecake to be exact. And I would rather have a Cranberry-Cherry Limeade from Sonic in my hand then anything else!
What is your favorite day of the week? Saturdays! If we’re not at a wedding, that’s the day I get to do a major scrub-down on my house! Plus it’s always fun to spend time with family and friends.
What is something people don’t know about you? I suffer from what a friend calls “crafting-superhero tendencies”. I will figure out how anything was made and try and do it myself before I buy it. Sometimes I can pull it off (and even do it better), sometimes not!
What do I love most about my job? That moment when the bride begins her walk down the aisle- I get choked up every single time! I love being involved in the most important day of people’s lives and all the awesomely creative energy that I get to surround myself with. |
