I grew up a only child for much of my childhood and have grown to deeply enjoy the company of my family. We have five kids, 2 dogs (one is pretty sure she is a human, don’t tell her I said that), two cats, a bearded dragon and fish so it is a very full house. We also foster kittens about half the year.

Sports keep me going sometimes. I am 45 but still play: softball, baseball, ski, snowboard, golf and weightlift a couple days a week.

Last, being out doors always seems to fill my tank and help me find inspiration. Our world is so amazingly diverse, efficient, and beautiful and best of all, most of it is free to enjoy.
