Tammy Wilson
Small Business Owner, Social Media Manager, and Writer in Cardinal, Ontario, Canada
A transplanted Vancouverite doing her best to bloom where she's planted.
She is a writer, a dreamer, and an avid crafter. She is a household adventurer who juggles many passions and pursuits.
She lives in Cardinal, Ontario in what was once lovingly dubbed as the "FamilyZoo" with her teddy bear, and the menagerie of pets and kids that own them.
The 3 (not so) little bears are grown and she now celebrates her favourite job (so far) ~ being a Grandma. She is blessed to have 5 wonderful grandchildren.
Since moving from Vancouver to Ontario, nearly 40 yeas ago, she has invested much time facilitating the needs of others.
She likes to tease that she is but a ghost in the machine, an apt description for someone who devotes much time in editing, promoting, and managing social media for a variety of people, projects, and groups.
After spending a dozen years working in local media covering Leeds & Grenville, she now enjoys writing a little closer to home and freelance writing for the South Grenville Beacon.
She is active in her community volunteering with the Royal Canadian Legion, the Edwardsburgh Cardinal Library, the 661 Lt. W.F. Sharpe Air Cadet Squadron. and the parent councils for her grandchildrens' schools.
She organizes an annual vendor market for the 1000 Islands Regatta. Boredom is something that Tammy isn't well-acquainted with.
She is a cancer survivor twice over, and a long-time member of the guinea pig club who likes to make the most of every "bonus day" she has been granted in a personal effort to give thanks for being allowed to remain. It isn't lost on her that a great many others are not afforded this luxury.
She is a long-time paper crafter and Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. She joined Tupperware, Scentsy, and most recently added GelMoment to her repertoire simply because she was a huge fan of each of them.
Chalk Couture and Handmarks were added in a temporary reprieve from the medzone, while planning for a slow-down and some personal crafting therapy.
They say we're never given more than we can handle but I'd sure like to have a chat with that planning committee!
