I'm a busy mom, a freelance writer and blogger, an artist, and a social media junkie. I like bad movies, good coffee, and lots of sparkles. My work has been featured places like Headline News, Huffington Post, Buzzfeed, and multiple other blogs and local publications. I occasionally do public speaking at conferences. And my newest passion is travel - just completed a 12 day trip that included a 7 Caribbean cruise!
