A lover of music, frolicking, traveling, books,people (and their stories) knowledge, truth, love, movies, food, language, the stage, finding balance (Mind, Body, Soul), healthy relationships and Christ.
So I..

My Goal Is To..
To help others become the healthiest most balanced, joy filled version of themselves (Spiritually & Mentally). Once that is in place everything else will fall in line (finances, health, relationships, etc).
The Vehicle

What's Happening Now?
I am 9 classes away from graduation! <tosses confetti>. I am in the midst of trying to raise a tremendous amount of money so that I am may spend Fall 2014 studying French, History and Fine Arts at the University of Paris Sorbonne! Trying to crowd fund over $16,000 dollars in a month and additional $9000 by the end of August is proving to be "interesting". Check out my GoFundMe- www.gofundme.com/I-Dreamt-Of-Paris. If you have any suggestion on how to find funding please feel free to share. I am almost certain this will be funded primarily by the kindness of others..mainly stangers so if you are a fan of education, travel or the pursuit of dreams feel free to GoFundMe ;-). Every dollar helps! I am also about to launch an online magazine and beginning work on a book on the joys, sorrows and pains of being single (unmarried) in your 30's and I am leaving my job of 7 years. Sounds insane right?! Welcome to my world. :-)
