WHO: Executive director of Texas 4000 for Cancer (texas4000.org). KEEP IT CASUAL: "I love great food and casual dining, so I often hit Jack Allen's Kitchen (7720 Hwy. 71 W., 512-852-8558; jackallenskitchen.com). If you haven't had Sunday Brunch there, you're missing out." REAL HOT SPOT: "Everyone knows if we're meeting over coffee, I'm going to suggest that we meet at Cenote (1010 E. Cesar Chavez St., 512-524-1311; cenoteaustin.com) on the East Side! The café mocha is my drink of choice." HOLDING COURT: "Public parks and recreational spaces are so important. I play tennis at South Austin Tennis Center (1000 Cumberland Rd., 512-442-1466; rippnertennis.com). I call it my home court—they have a great tennis facility, recreation center, and park." PHENOM FUNDRAISER: "Supporting the fight against cancer is something I believe in strongly. There isn't a better, more moving way to support the cause than attending Texas 4000 for Cancer's Tribute Gala (texas4000.org/event/tribute-gala) on August 25." CONCERT NIRVANA: "It doesn't matter who is playing—if they are performing at ACL Live at Moody Theater (310 W. Willie Nelson Blvd., 512-225-7999; acl-live.com), I'm in. It's a great music venue.
