First and foremost, I am a mom and wife. :)   I am also a freelance online writer, designer and photographer.  I have an Associate of General Studies and AGEC-A certifcation and am currently working on certificates in Graphic Design, Freelance Writing and Photography. 

I recently lost over 40 pounds and reversed high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes!  I follow a hybrid of Primal, Paleo and Perfect Health Diet styles of eating.

I recently began working with a personal trainer to continue to get healthy and lose more weight.

I live in the sunny Phoenix area with my husband of 17 years, our four children and our three four-legged furry friends. :D

I home school all four of our children--one is starting college this spring!

I also am an aspiring-minimalist and I've embarked on the huge task of decluttering, simplifying and organizing every aspect of my home and my life.

I'm also very frugal and I'm a coupon-clipper.  But not a radical one! :)

When I'm not doing any of the above activities, I love to read and I love to craft (soapmaking and sewing being my favorites).
