My Childhood I was born in Ottowa, Ontario, Canada in the year 1970. My father found himself there during the Vietnam War. I then moved with my mom to New York City when I was still very young. We moved around several times and lived in many different states before settling down in Dallas, Texas. I currently mantain citizenship in both the US and Canada. I was always an avid science fiction fan. I would come home every day after school and watch "StarTrek". I also collected any StarWars parafanalia I could get my hands on. My cousin and I would exchange flight plans and star charts in the mail (he lived in New Mexico). Click on the picture below to see more about StarTrek.
I loved animals. Much to my parents dismay I would regularly bring home abandoned cats and dogs. I also loved to go camping, which is one of the reasons I stayed in Girl Scouts for 10 years (besides the cookies). In high school I picked up playing the viola and joined the orchestra. I developed a fond attraction to classical music. I also have three younger brothers. The oldest one is 15 years younger than I, so I always considered myself a only child. My Adult Life I now have a 11 year old daughter named Lauren. It is wonderful being a mom, but very time consuming. I am just now going back to school to finish my degree. I originally wanted to be a history teacher, but after being out in the work force, I fell into a technical writing job. I really enjoy it and would like to branch out into E-Learning. I bought my first house a year and a half ago. I really enjoy being a home owner and decorating as I please. As an adult I have really developed a desire to travel and experience other cultures and their history and architecture - thought it seems to take a lot of money, which I don't have. I am a committed Christian but I am not committed to any particular denomination. If I could give you any advice from my own experiences, I would say, life is going to be full of challenges but just make sure you handle them with the best possible attitude (and don't marry too young). And, I almost forgot, I have an extreme addiction to chocolate! Click on the picture below to enjoy more chocolate!
