| Introduction | I consider myself to be a multi-hyphenate. Wife. Mother. Teacher. Writer. Some days I'm more of one than the others, but there are no other roles I'd rather play. Check out my about.me profile! |
| Interests | My husband, my son, my family & friends. And everything else when I have time! |
| Favorite movies | When I do have time to sit and watch a movie, I'm such a "chick". I fall for Rom-Coms like an addict. But my real love is horror movies. Odd combo, right? |
| Favorite music | Pretty much everything. Though I've never been into classical music all that much. On most days you'll find me listening to some sort of indie-alternative rock. |
