About Me

I am a 39 year old married female who works from home as a freelance graphic designer/web designer for our family's business, Wheaton Religious Gift & Church Supply, in Wheaton, IL.  I have 2 children (twin boys soon to be 8 months old) named Joshua & Jimmy. I also have a 6 year old Chocolate Lab named Zeke and an 11 year old Quaker parrot named Ollie.

When I am not working, I enjoy many hobbies including ATVing, Trikking (www.trikke.com), mountain biking, archery, skiboarding, yoga, Bosu, Bodylastics, astronomy, bird watching, hiking, fishing, swimming, drawing, painting, calligraphy, photography, knitting/crocheting, jewelry making, scrap booking, playing the flute, clarinet, keyboard and drums, singing, composition, and dancing.

I am a total "Techie" and love all of the latest gadgets (especially anything Mac!) video/MP3 players, digital cameras, computers, cell phones, GPS, satellite radios- XM/Sirius, iPad, iPhone, etc.) Ham radio (“kc9dch”)/CB radio (“Minnie Mouse”), video games (Xbox, Playstation, Wii, Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Atari, Intellivision, etc.) computers (web/internet design) Graphic Design (print, desktop publishing, Mac).  I am obsessed with clip art, fonts, paper, frames and ribbon!


I collect Teddy Bears (including Care Bears) Chocolate Lab items, and various Cacti, Aloe and Succulents.  


I am an avid reader and I have a Kindle DX (of course!) and I also have a huge reference book collection on several topics such as Labrador Retrievers, Quaker Parrots, cacti, astronomy, ham radio, foreign languages (Spanish), knitting, crocheting, jewelry making, art, music, photography, yoga, acupuncture, meditation, chiropractic, reflexology, nutrition, fitness, health, medicine and religion. 

My goal is to become a healthier person (both physically & mentally) after years of battling Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia, Candidia, possible Meniere's Disease, Infertility, and Glucose intolerance.  I try to work out about 4-5x a week for about an hour with a combination of Bodylastics, Bosu Ball (rebounding), Yoga, Pilates, AIS Stretching and Sprint 8 on my elliptical.  One of my biggest challenges is healthy eating on the go, as my husband & I are often crazy busy and we end up eating out quite a bit.
