About Me

"You have the creativity and endurance to make a great historian." 

When your college history professor writes a statement like that on a paper you've spent several weeks researching and writing, complete with charts and a bibliography, you can't help but smile. More than 10 years later, I no longer remember her name, but her words of encouragement have stayed with me.

"You would think you did this for a living."

Compliment offered by my public relations professor at Mt. Mary College for my end of semester PR Kit.

"You did an awesome job on those articles."

I love writing and I love doing it well. My specialty is putting information into terms that everyone can understand, even if it's a topic the reader isn't familiar with. My favorite topics are feline health and women's history, but I appreciate the challenge and learning involved in writing about topics like landscaping and local community issues.

My husband and I are Southerners at heart (Wisconsin winters are NOT our favorite thing) and our cats certainly prefer the open windows that summer brings.

Other creative interests include scrapbooking, cooking, and even a little photography. I love reading and traveling and I've driven through most of the states between here and the East Coast, all the way south to Florida.
