I absolutely love creating in all forms. I have a vivacious sense of humor, spirited heart and am deeply driven to produce exceptional work. In a world filled with darkness I aim to shine my light.
When I was 26 I became single, unemployed and pregnant. Through this unexpected gift of single motherhood I have learned the greatest lessons in life of healing, humor, forgiveness and love.
I love telling stories that uplift through heart-felt connection and humor.

LET’S CONNECT
This story is based on my lived experience during one of the most bizarre times in my lifetimes history; the pandemic. As a way to cope with the overwhelming stress of being a single parent of a then 6th grader dealing with job loss/uncertainty etc (like many of us), I picked up dance rollerblading through my neighborhood. I always struggled with low self confidence and self esteem. I used rollerblading through the neighborhood as a way to "let go, not give a rat's a$$ what anyone thought of me and build the self confidence of an ice skating champion." True story, a cyclist did in fact tell me that "I looked like an idiot" as he rode off in his man cyclist spandex. Everyone copes with stress in different ways. Today, I am grateful for that man.
