: About Me

I am a wife, a mother, and all around almost normal human being. I have been married for 6 years and have two amazing kids that bring me joy every day, even on days when my patience is tested past its limits. I would like to claim that I am witty, but I think most would say I am just tacky. I say what needs to be said, but rarely when or how it needs to be said. One positive note about that, I am real. I am honest to a fault sometimes and am working on tact.

I have a Business Degree from Texas Wesleyan University. I have worked in corporate America some, but choose to stay home with our kids for now.

I enjoy challenges and pushing myself past what I think are my limits intellectually. I have an open mind to those that have different beliefs than I do. I appreciate that everyone has different life experiences and can look at the same thing from two completely different perspectives.
