: About Me

My passion is ...

Photography

I know too much about ...

My parents always told me ...

"You'd never worry what people thought about you, if you realized how seldom they do."

My first job ...

Was as a supermarket demo girl. I was too pretty for pizza, not pretty enough for shampoo, and too exotic looking for household cleansers.

My best moment ...

Is also my favorite memory.

My inspiration ...

My daughter.
