My writing career began when I was five. I learned to write my name, and I was so excited about it that I wrote my name on walls, furniture, and virtually any surface that would take a pencil mark. Throughout my elementary school years, I practiced my handwriting and diagrammed sentences FOR FUN. Seriously.

From my teens into my thirties, I kept a journal, partly because I was trying to make sense of myself and this world, and partly because I love, love, love to write. I also created weekly publications professionally and taught myself basic video editing.

Eventually, my kids got older, and I decided to go back to school to get the official stamp of approval on what I had already been doing for years.

Since then, I have been writing creative and technical content for contractors, home and property service providers, installers, inspectors, and others in various industries, especially the tile and stone industry.

I’m grateful that I have the opportunity to leverage my skills to make a difference in people’s businesses.
