About Me


I'm a pretty laid back, easy going type of person. I love to be social and meet new friends, and am usually up for just about anything. I always seem to be planning something from fundraisers to parties. I always try to stay positive and learn from my experiences. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and try not to regret anything.
I work in Boston as an ophthalmic technician, which basically means that I do eye exams.
And...I celebrated 12 years of being cancer free in November! It is something that is a very big part of who I am, and something I am thankful for everyday. Everything happens for a reason, and who knows where I'd be had I not experienced what I have. It is something I am totally open with so if you have any questions don't be afraid to ask! :) I'm the chairperson for the American Cancer Society's the Relay for Life of Arlington. I love the feeling of making a difference in peoples lives. If one life is touched because of something I do, then my job is done, and it makes everything worth it. :)
I am only one;
but I am still one.
I can not do everything;
but I can still do something.
I will not refuse to do the
something I can.
~Helen Keller
When push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend 'till you break
'Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, You get strong
Wipe your hands, Shake it off
Then you stand....
~Rascal Flatts
No matter if they stop and stare,
No person ever anywhere,
Can make me feel that what they see,
Is all there really is to me.
~Karen Beaumont
