About Me.

Hello and thank you for visiting my blog!

Whew, this is intimidating… what do I say about myself to the world? Hmmm, let’s see…

I think the best way for you to get to know me is to tell you what I love:

I love my family- first and foremost and always. My family comes first, and yes, that includes my 110 pound german shepherd dog, and my other assorted animal companions.

I love marketing- its what I do for a living but its also what I love, and that’s because to me its not about selling, its about connecting with people. Nobody wants to be sold anything, but they do love to connect with things they need and love, they delight when they discover that a product or service is “Exactly what I’ve been looking for!”. I love doing that.

I love photography- not just the point and shoot kind but really capturing something that nobody else sees.

I love to travel but for me, travel is about really seeing and knowing a place. Travel is not all about experiencing 5 star resorts in far flung corners of the earth. Although that’s nice, ok- reeeally nice, but what I really groove on is to hang out in a place for a while, get to know people and what life is like there. When I experience a place in this way I feel like I have really been there.

I love, love, love to cook. And thats probably because I love, love, love to eat. I have been blessed to spend most of my career around kitchen products and celebrity chef’s and that helped me grow into a fanatic foodie.

If I’m at home I’m either in the kitchen or in my garden, my final love. Its something special to have a relationship with every plant in my garden. I know them all. I’ve put them all there, I am responsible for their lives, and the care I lavish on them pays back in happiness and mental health.
