ABOUT ME
A friend once said I’m like a velvet crowbar.
I was almost offended, but it’s a pretty honest assessment.
You see, I meditate daily and I also swear too much.
I cry easily, but I always pick action over chick flicks.
I’m typically generous, unless you are arrogant or unkind, or just totally full of shit.
Then, watch out.
This is who I am and how I work: Good listening meets straight talking. Tough questions layered with juicy creative. A mildly neurotic balance of dreaming and doing.
I’ve been copywriting and consulting for over 15 years, but a passion for clear communication is just woven into my DNA.
Words hold power and meaning and can also be a form of love when used with care. It is my great passion and challenge to try to sculpt them into something useful to share with the world.
When I’m not writing I enjoy cooking, thrift shopping, killing plants (not really, but can’t seem to help it), meditation, yoga, being in nature, and adventuring with my husband, kid, and dog.
Two of my favorite things: sparkly earrings and the beach.
I don’t think there’s such thing as “quirky“ people.
To quirk is to be human.
In which case, more is more.
SO THEN, A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT ME:
HAPPY PLACE:
at the beach
UNHAPPY PLACE:
in the water
PASSIONATE ABOUT:
planet, good writing, authenticity, earrings, kindness, dogs, rocks
PEEVES:
small talk, air freshener, bad lighting
TRUTH:
I’m a tried-and-true introvert. So it’s not that I’m shy or don’t like people, they just make me a little sleepy in large doses.
TURNING POINT:
I’m what you could (but probably shouldn’t) call an “old” mom. We adopted our son after a 10-year, ahem, journey. He is the very best and most exhausting game-changer to date.
I also dabble in poetry.
That thing I said earlier about the ahem…journey. ☝🏼
Day one of fostering this puppy. Two years later, he’s still here. 🥰
I also like pigs.
