More about Me: I've been on skirt! for close to 3 years now, although I have gone in spurts with my writing. This site is full of amazing women and now, fortunately, some of my closest friends. About me? Hmm... I have a really big heart. I love to love. I love to do things for other people. I truly believe that the world is a mirror - what you put out into it comes right back to you. As I've gotten older (mid-30s now), I've realized how truly precious life really is. I have always been the type to conquer the world, but now I also balance that with appreciating the really small things that life has to offer. I'm loving life right now and loving the perspective that comes with age. I'm telling you... so far, the 30s are the best decade! Truly. I can't wait to see what else life has in store for me.
Favorite Music: Mostly country, Sugarland, Keith Urban, Jack Johnson, INXS, Third Eye Blind, and the 80s and 90s music I grew up with.
I am most proud of: Walking across the stage after a long, tough journey to earn a fancy piece of paper; Deciding to pursue an MBA; Picking up my life to move to Atlanta by myself and then after 7 years, picking up my life to move to Seattle; My relentless pursuit of my absolute best life
I am most guilty of: Procrastination and Perfectionism.
Words I live by: "Be the change you want to see in the world." Mahatma Gandhi; "Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." Ralph Waldo Emerson
