Not long ago, Heather Hopson was a television host in the Cayman Islands. Today, she’s writing a different kind of story as a new mom. On Mother’s Day 2012, she launched Diary of a First Time Mom to document her journey through motherhood and share her stories with other brand new mommies (and daddies). She has since expanded the site to include a Dating Diary—an upbeat, honest and humorous look into her love life with a permanent plus one. Her articles include Mom of the Week profiles and celebrity one-on-one interviews.

In the first year of her blogging business, Mouth Media--the parent company of Diary of a First Time Mom was ranked #49 in Startup Nation's Home-Based 100 competition, sponsored by Discover Card & Sam's Club.

Heather is a member of Collective Bias and worked with brands such as Walmart and Huggies. Heather also attended exclusive press trips to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Walt Disney World. You can also connect with her through Shades of Social Media and Black & Married With Kids.
