I'm a driven individual who loves working with people! I've been a babysitter and then a nanny pretty much all of my life, and I always considered writing as a hobby. It wasn't until I was into adulthood that I stopped listening to my teachers telling me that writers don't make money, that writing isn't a career. I dove into freelance work, and I have now made it into my full time job! I still nanny part-time, but my goal is to be completely supported by my talent by the end of 2011! :) I'm also challenging myself to be a published author, something that has also been a dream of mine. In my spare time, I am learning bellydancing and trying to stay on top of my family's laundry!
