Other than a couple of elementary-school years that I lived in Texas, I grew up in Cullman, Alabama. When I was little I did pageants, and when I got bigger it was all twirling. I graduated college with a BBA (Business Administration) and a BS (Liberal Arts).
Now, I don’t want to give you the wrong impression. I have two degrees not because of my super ambition but rather because I had such a hard time making up my mind about what to be. It took me a little over five years to graduate. My college advisor said “we should just take all those physical therapy credits and human resources credits and such and add them all up so you walk with two tassels instead of one.” He liked me. And that was it. Voila, liberal arts.
Well, I graduated and moved into a tee-tiny apartment (imagine 450 square feet and all of it is Pier 1, which at the time I thought was the summit of good taste) and got my first ‘real job’.
*Loved* it. After having two babies 15 months apart, I decided to do something else professionally. I had always enjoyed playing around with graphic design so I learned to do that. Creativity and being around creative people makes me super happy.
I love teaming up with others to do good things so I try to stay active volunteering, and family with my two teenage boys is the most treasured, important thing in my life.
Well! That’s my little story. We go somewhere almost every weekend. We cook, we eat, we make things, we enjoy art, we enjoy people.
When the day is over and everyone’s in bed, I put together Deep Fried Kudzu. I hope you enjoy it too.
