I’m a single mom to 3 amazing and very different daughters, Olivia 12, Hope 10, and Fiona 7.
I became a single mom when I was 9 months pregnant with Fiona.
I homeschool all 3 due to Olivia having special needs and us functioning like the musketeers, all for one and one for all.
I lived in NYC for 10 years when I was working as a Broadway singer but now live in a small artsy town in CA with 2 chickens, Luna and Summer.
I had a nervous breakdown at 10. I was put into a special needs class and was made to ride the short bus with the coolest humans I’ve ever met.
My first suicide attempted was at 10, I don’t tell you this to brag but to say I am familiar with dark scary places. I’ve been there many times. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel even if you have to become it yourself.

My Super Powers
Artist - Creating something out of nothing.
Master Generalist - I can hold a wide variety of information in my mind and see the whole picture across disciplines allowing me to see the problem from many perspectives along with a variety of solutions.
Mom- Finding lost things.
Survivor- A cynical optimist.
Research… I can’t get enough of new information, new knowledge, new experiences. often people will say where did you find that? Learn that? I have no idea. I just jump down the rabbit hole after rabbit hole and love every minute.
Neurodivergent - my brain style is different than the one this world was created for. But Divergent brains are what the world needs. ADHD, highly sensitive, prone to depression and anxiety which allow me to feel and connect with people deeply.
