CreativeMindset
Photography“Making Memories” has been my theme for my love of photography. It was an effort to capture those special moments that truly sparked an interest in photography. Having been the family photographer for years my travels have opened up another dimension of creativity.
Fine Art of KnittingThe builder in me enjoys finding ways to express myself using my own two hands. I’ve tried everything from quilting to scrapbooking but knitting is my favorite.

TheFutureWhere I Am Going…

Personal& Professional Goals/Challenges
Trusting the Process
In my need to determine the best course of action, I
ask a lot of questions,
sometimes delaying the start of
something new. I need to be more
flexible.
Impatience
Sometimes I get frustrated when I
can not get information to make quick
decisions. I need advisors to talk to
real time.
Financial Accountability
I would like to gain experience in
maintaining & implementing a
budget for a product line. I
need a position with exposure to
this area.17
My Vision
My future using my
imagination, words, and images to
illustrate my dreams
