Born in Charlotte, NC in 1984 as a late christmas present to my mother and father.

Also known as Hurricane Haddie to my grandparents :)

After my parents split I turned to a life of beaches and great friends in Florida. I took up the sport of swimming, then weightlifting, and finally rowing.

It's rowing that got my through college (and paid for) and helped me learn so many lessons and become the independent woman I am today. I left Florida in 2003 for college, and it took me 9 years to come back. I have had a successful career in collegiate athletics marketing. I moved back home to be closer to my family. So I left on a whim and I am appreciating things on another level I never "had time" for before.

I am starting to get into the blogging world, so I hope you enjoy the ride and let me know what you want to hear, read, and learn about!
