A mini Bio about me huh....
Well 1st & foremost I am a girl. That is the easy part. 2nd I am an outspoken, active Christian. 3rd I am quite the jokester. I love to crack jokes or sometimes (a lot of times) sarcastic comments to get a smile out of someone. The more stressful a situation the more I try to joke my way through it.. I love to focus on the positive & try to steer others in that direction as well.
Kids are a passion of mine especially those that are getting a raw deal in life.
I have a huge heart for kids in the foster care system & hope to adopt some day.
Career wise I have worked as a daycare teacher, I taught Pre-k. I spent 10yrs working in the Photography industry from shooting to selling to managing to retail to darkroom. I tried to learn all areas. After a while I felt a bit burned out and desired a change. I spent 2 years in the Cellular industry as an inventory control manager. However I had desired for several years to relocate from South Florida to somewhere in New England. On a visit to Maine I fell in love, with the state! I returned on a second visit with the intent to relocate. I applied at a few places and got a call offering me a position in the banking industry the day after I returned home. 6 weeks later & was going on a road trip hauling all my belongings behind me. I'm happy with my decision to move but I miss the warmer summers. I believe this is not the end of the road. I know there are other adventures awaiting me.
I'm pretty open & honest. Some times too much so. You might notice that in my journal. So take a moment or too & really get to know me by reading through my ramblings...
