I am a writer at heart! Creating with words is my happy place. I am the mother of 5 amazing children ages 4 through 16, and what a joy it is. I am an artist and small business owner who handcrafts one-of-a-kind leather books and journals. I dexterously handle leather working tools and my industrial sewing machine. Through my fine arts degree in book binding and paper arts, yes it's a thing, I inspire others to create. My background is in Higher Ed Administration and I was a Dean at a local Community College, before I decided to stay home with the kids and start my art business. I homeschooled all 5 children for a year. What a humbling but wonderful experience. I also worked as a small claims court clerk and was the jury clerk for my city.
Thanks for your time. I would love to write something for you!
