About Me


I am a stay-at-home mom raising two very cool and awesome young men!! Not to sound cliche', they are absolutely the best thing that I have done. Having children changes you!
My background prior to having children is in radio and television. I started in radio in Jacksonville, FL at WIVY-Y103FM and then worked with WAWS-TV, a FOX affiliate (back in the days of Beverly Hills 90210, In Living Color, and Melrose Place to name a few). I was a model in my spare time was also in the Miss Jacksonville, Miss Hawaiian Tropic, and Mrs. Florida competitions.
After my first son was born, we moved to Ft. Wayne, Indiana to build a brand new radio station! We owned WFWI-FM. We were the first affiliate in the country to syndicate the highly successful "Bob & Tom" morning show! (There are in 147 markets now!) After selling the station in the late 90's, we moved to Orlando where my husband was the Director of National Sales for all 6 Cox radio stations. He is no longer with Cox and took a sabbatical during the summer and fall. He has now teamed back up with his radio partner and is the new Director of Sales at WKLU-FM in Indianapolis, Indiana!!

I am a Licensed Aesthetician. Recently, I was working for Florida Vein Care & Cosmetic Center performing various medical aesthetic procedures such as glycolic peels, microderm/vibraderm abrasion, ultrasound facials, LED Light Therapy, and micro-current rejuvenation therapy.

My boys are now 13 and 15 years old. It is important to me to be around during this magical and sometimes frustrating part of their lives!! I am devoting my time and energy to them as they will be off to college sooner than later. Not that I'm biased, but they are growing-up into great young men! One is in the rigorous International Baccalaureate program (with a 4.714 GPA!)and plays the acoustic & electric guitar. The youngest is in his last year of middle school and is in both symphonic and jazz band. With their studio upstairs, our house is loud and alive with much energy and music these days!!

Life is very good!!
