About Me

"You only get one life... you may as well spend it doin what you love."
-Earl
It seems as if I am constantly changing. I think we all are. The last few years of my life have been dramatically full of transition, and I see many more on the horizon. Everytime we reach that plateau and are content, we find another mountain to climb. I think a wise person is one who learns from life’s experiences. I have learned the importance of being honest with your self. I have made some wonderful friends, and experienced some wonderful things. I enjoy learning about people and looking below the surface to what they’re really about.
To meet me, you would see that I am fun-loving, sarcastic, witty, and have a good sense of humor. I am honest, upfront, and opinionated. To work with me, you would know that I am dedicated, focused, organized, and care about what I do. My life is about learning, growing, giving, and loving. I have the most wonderful husband, who compliments my personality and makes my life complete. Loving him has taught me so much about myself. Together we are learning what makes us happy, and what we want out of life. I am thinking about going back to school, or maybe teaching. I am currently at another crossroads, wondering where life will take me next. It’s amazing how your hopes and dreams change as you grow.
