Would you mind telling us a little about yourself?
I'm a newly married girl, born and raised in North Carolina where my dreams of becoming an architect led me to graphic and web design and photography. My free tie is spend antiquing or volunteering for my local animal shelter, photographing animals waiting for their forever homes. I also participate in graphic design and photography competitions. I'm the proud mom to 4 fur babies: Benji, Maggie, Mallory, and Fruit Cup the cat and proud admit I'm a foster failure. I love artwork by Andy Warhol and anything Lucille Ball, boy bands (especially Backstreet Boys), anything from the 80ss decade, anything pink and sparkly, and Vera Bradley however you won't find me without my Kate Spade purse. I like to say I have an old soul but am still young at heart.
