About

I am an artist, a writer, a teacher. I am also a mom to two kids, a Border Collie and a cat. Oh yeah.

And I’m a wife and a thirty-something woman who knows she has been blessed by God and wants to share the joy.

I am a former police reporter for a daily newspaper. I started writing for newspapers in the 9th grade and thought that becoming a professional journalist was what I wanted to do with my life. I pursued this dream right up until I became pregnant with my son in 1999.

That’s when I realized working odd hours and being away from my baby for at least 8 hours a day wouldn’t work for me. How could I concentrate on writing a news story about a five car pile up on the turnpike when I had a baby at some daycare center missing his one and only mama?

So, I left my job and became a stay at home mom. During this time, I found a few SAHM and breastfeeding communities and started teaching myself graphic and web design. (After all, I had lots of baby pictures that needed to go online.)

And that’s when I discovered many of my friends were selling cloth diapers, jewelry and baby slings online. They found out I could create websites and wanted me to build e-commerce sites for them.

A year later, I filed for my sole proprietorship and starting building websites full time. My mission was to help work at home moms learn how to sell physical products online.

I started out offering hosting and web design. With more years of experience under my belt and after working with more than 400 WAHMs, I realized that I wasn’t really doing what God wanted me to.

After more than 7 years running my own business, I realized it was time to close that chapter in my life. I sold the business in August 2009 to another company that I knew would take care of my clients.

I earned my Oklahoma teaching certification in English and Journalism and I am now subbing in the Noble school system.

So far, no job, as a result of the economy the way it is, so I have signed up to help students with their homework via the Noble Public Library.

And I’ve always wanted to write a novel. Hmmm…maybe now’s the time?
