About:
A native Southern Californian, I was born and raised into a spirited family of nine, about an hour from Los Angeles. We also had a couple of cats, four dogs, two pianos and a variety of other instruments including violins, trumpets, flutes, french horns, all of which may or may not have been practiced at the same time. Organized chaos. Many summer vacations were spent traveling across the good ole USA in our family van (when it wasn't broken down on the side of a road), with our trailer in tow. Wanderlust is one of the greatest gifts my parents instilled in me. I'm blessed to be a sister to six, aunt to nine and mom to my furry son Canon, a Tijuana-rescue, who barks in Español.
