: About Me

Growing up the youngest of five kids I learned early on the reality of imagination. I was too young for inclusion with my siblings fun festivities yet I always was a tag along because I couldn't be left alone. So, I took up the skill of creating make believe worlds. Today, it still continues. I hold an associate degree in Fine and Applied Arts, a Bachelors in General Studies, and a massage therapy license. My hobbies consist of painting, drawing, sewing, and writing. I love music,dancing, and Broadway plays. Reality TV perhaps is my vice but I find myself laughing more often than not. Basically, writing and painting are a means to take what is in my head and share it with the world. Hopefully, the world finds it as delightful.
