Introduction | I am an avid sports fan and am especially passionate about soccer, Manchester United in particular. I spend a significant portion of my time following and becoming involved in international relief/humanitarian efforts. It is my hope to one day be able to travel with one or more NGO's (non-government-backed organizations) and assist with relief efforts firsthand. In the meantime, I can support some of these groups through the sale of my artistic creations. I own my own jewelry company & create custom-designed, unique pieces that are never duplicated. My area of true artistic passion, however, is Ukranian eggs, or Pysanky. It is both tedious and difficult but I love it! After watching a heartbreaking documentary, "Chernobyl Heart", I decided to one day begin selling selling these eggs to benefit the Chernobyl Children's Project. This summer I embark on that mission. years. The other passions in my life are my Blue Lynx Birman Cat, Kashi, and the 7 girls that I sponsor on 4 different continents. These girls are precious angels that have touched my life in so many amazing ways. I look so forward to meeting them when I travel to meet them in the near future. |
