Concerned I was becoming a sour girl, I quit the corporate grind to pursue writing. I've had a regular feature column in By The Sea Times for the last several years and offer freelance writing services.

The life I carve keeps me fresh with experiences worth sharing from the utterly bizarre, to 'stop, my cheeks hurt' hilarious to the silent soulful discoveries I've made in this tropical oasis.

The Historian

My first job ...

built-in babysitter

My best moment ...

right now. Infinity!

My inspiration ...

is all around
