I once had the opportunity to interview comedian Wanda Sykes. I asked her, "before comedy what was one of your most memorable jobs?" She said she once worked in a kitchen and had the task of splitting chick peas - she hated it.

For the past three years, I've spent my days taking on the responsibility of being JC Ehrlich's (Prince George's County District) first female Pest Control Technician. It's a dirty job but I enjoy it. As I help to rid everyone from a business owner to a single dad's pest concerns, I meet a slew of beautiful people along the way. I enjoy it because it feeds right into my natural "historian" spirit.

My ultimate goal in life is to hear stories, live stories, and tell stories. I've been blessed with the drive and opportunity to hone this skill. So I come to you today, with the want to network with people and organizations that'll keep this wheel in motion.
