Interests:
New and innovative ways to look at all forms of communications including new media, SEO, and blogging. I enjoy work in social marketing above all - taking the issues that impact society and creating understanding and solutions that make a difference.
Personnally I love to read fiction, great fiction, not so much pulp fiction.
I am a gourmet chef wannabe (foodie). I fear I have a long way to go. I grow as much as I can stuff into my garden and spend WAY too much time cooking on the weekends.
Music and performing music is definitley on my list of interest. Although I have very little time these days to perform or record, it's still a part of who I am. My plan is to get back to it once my teenagers are safely off to college.
