About Me
In a lot of ways, I am just a girl, sitting in front of a computer screen, wondering how in the world to describe myself. Like my home page says, most days I'm just a wife, a mom and an occasional writer. But it sort of goes beyond that. I'm a creative and a creator by nature. I'm always learning, growing and honestly, just trying to figure myself out.
In the days after losing my dad in the summer of 2021, I was told on numerous occasions that I had a gift for writing. I've been writing for the greater part of my life and I studied it in the form of journalism in college. But a writing career soon shifted over to a marketing and advertising career and that was that. I've been super blessed to share my writing talents in my jobs and in some freelance projects, but for a long time that was about it. All along I've kept lists and notebooks with writing ideas and other things that are inspiring me. I began to share my writing again after my dad passed, in a way of honoring him.
I'm currently working on a children's book, inspired by something my oldest son used to always say to me... "Imagine if...". This web space is just a place for me to share a bit of who I am and a way to express myself creatively, outside my "day job" and yes, I still have one of those, in marketing.
I love cooking and baking, photography, interior design, gardening, DIY projects, makeup and painting.
I am constantly in pursuit of a minimalistic lifestyle.
My dream is to move out into the country and have a little farm and homestead complete with goats, lambs, a llama or two, mini donkey, ducks and a pack of dogs (my family would be coming with me LOL).
I am deathly afraid of sharks, bats, snakes, sloths and spiders. And yes, you read that right, I LOATHE sloths.
I love to read and try to read at least 24 books per year.
My dream job was to write and photograph for National Geographic.
I have a long Bucket List but top items are to see the Northern Lights, visit as many National Parks as I can and write and publish a book!
My dream was to be a Boy Mom and I am so incredibly blessed to get to live that out with my 2 guys every single day.
I love and follow Jesus Christ, but also acknowledge that I'm a very flawed human being in need of a LOT of grace and forgiveness.
I'm an Enneagram Type 6 and an INFJ Myers Briggs Type (shout out if you know a thing or two about it!). For those of you that don't know personality types - it just means I'm very complicated.
