I am a mother of 3 and a grandmother of 4. I graduated from Carver Vo-Tech Class of 1982 in Baltimore from the LPN Program and received my license 6 months after graduation. I retired as a nurse in 1999. I became a Paramedic Firefighter (1986) with the Baltimore City Fire Department and retired 2005. I enjoy being creative with my skills in sewing, crochet, drawing and ceramics. I create with you in mind. My newest adventure is writing with a purpose to inspire, to uplift, to encourage and to give honor to those who have been an instrumental part of my life. I create hats, scarfs, tote bags, fanny packs, drawstring bags, skirts, dolls, bath wraps, mugs, vases, sculptures, and painting designed by my son, etc. My books are designed for children and adults. Regardless of who you gift the book to I pray that it is empowering to motivate you to make the difference in someone's life other than your own. I love music, a game of scrabble, motorcycles, line dancing and FAMILY
