Occupation Author/Artist, Mom, Dreamer, Seeker
Location Gurnee, IL, United States
Introduction I'm fast paced, a dreamer, and a very quick typist! High verbal, high energy...I ask a lot of questions. I love spending time with my fantastic 11 year old son! I'm a voracious reader. I love anything to do with art, museums, galleries, architecture, music, expression, creativity...the list goes on. I collect all sorts of things: rocks, feathers, nests, books, keys, locks, acorns. Currently I am fascinated with Windmills which I call "giant pinwheels in the sky..."
Interests I am fascinated with women's stories and the universal themes that occur in them. I love psychology, the study of archetypes, metaphor and symbolism. I am very interested in spirituality, dream interpretation, the mixture of coincidence, fate and choice, world religions, the Divine Feminine, the study of communication, child development, new business start-up, marketing, projecting sales, product development, design theories, and more...
