In addition to being a mom myself, I have a unique background that adds to the knoweldge I have to share with you. Take my upbringing as one of the oldest in a family of 13 for example. This experience exposed me to many ideas for caring for children and gave me ample oportunity to practice them for a LONG TIME! My own mother was an expert in all things motherhood, and even prior to earning the title myself, I learned much about the ins and outs of running a happy home from her.

I also have education that gives me a bit of an edge and a unique perspective. My 7+ years in the medical research field have taught me how to find good information AND to share it! My MBA taught me management and organization skills for working with people and running a business… And I find that they work great in a home!

Me in a Nutshell

I live in the United States, and have two darling children and a wonderful husband. They are my world! I work full-time as well and juggle a remote job as well as being very invovled in a church community with my role as a mom and wife. I love to run, cook, create, and adventure with my family. Reading is one of my favorite pastimes and I enjoy anything from romance novels to nonfiction and self help books. Honestly, being a mom is my favorite because it is a role where my passion for organization, medicine, communications, creativity, and teaching… well I get to do it all!
