About Me

I'm genuinely hopeful, adventurous, excited about life and love, I'm passionate about art.... creating it, teaching it, exploring it and enjoying the way it makes me feel-- I love singing in my car, planting flowers, taking naps, playing outside, hanging with my peeps, cuddlin' with my boy, anticipating the days ahead, missing a few left behind.... I'm an over all kind and fun-loving soul and determined to live to the fullest of my potential. I also want to protect our environment and help those around learn how to protect their world too! Every little bit counts for the better or worse! Let's make it better! I want to change the world!
