ABOUT ME:

I don't know if I'd call myself a photographer, but I have a desire to learn because I have a sister-in-law who does such awesome work that it gives me something to reach for. More than anything, I am highly creative and I like manipulating photos into eye-catching colorful kaleidoscope tessellations.

In my personal life, I am a non-traditional Christian (more concerned about my relationship with God than with a doctrine or religion) who sees God in all the world around me. I think God sees the world as I see kaleidoscope images, all different yet all beautiful and more beautiful when His light shines through them.

In my business life, I am a freelance writer who is heavily involved with "Louisville Christian Writers" and the "Kentucky Christian Writers Conference" and lightly involved with "NaNoWriMo." For my paycheck, I am a Chiropractic Assistant who is learning to specialize in insurance billing - and the headaches that go with it ;-)

Oh yeah, and I'm originally from out west (Los Angeles, Central California, and Northen Arizona) and got to Kentucky by falling in love with a 4th generation Kentuckian 17 years ago. I've had a lot of variety in my 44 years and hope it all continues to lead me to become more caring, mature, creative, and always topped with a healthy sense of humor.
