Self-employed Creative; Legit Graphic Designer, that means I earned college credits fair and square and had, I think, some talent to drive me in that direction. I have also been recognized for my logo design work. Some logos have won awards and some have also been published in well-known industry books.

I also enjoy photography, Duh. Well that's probably what drove me into graphic design, at least one thing. My fav to photo and simply sit and watch are animals and my travel locations.

I also like to write and am now a Published Author. My first completed book is a memoir and I tell all for the first time in 15 years of a horrific abusive marriage I was locked into. My abuser took away the key and I lost myself in that nightmare.

"The Blue Room" reveals what exactly an abused wife goes through. I pull the reader into the mental anguish that victim went through. In my situation this abuser was a co-worker and I was threatened continuously 24/7 during work hours and in our private residence. After reading this book you will never, ever ask the question, "If it was so bad why didn't you leave (earlier)?"

I was always a creative soul but it was ridiculed in my childhood home. Being an artist was not practical and my career advice from my Mother, my Father could careless, was "How about a checker, cashier, secretary..." They told me what I should do and told me what I couldn't do.

Ugh!!! I was lost for a long, long time.
