I’ve always been one to help others. I often help others before I help myself. My internal voice is always contradictory to the voice I share with the world. While I am pushing myself to be kinder to myself my voice to you is to be true to yourself.

So, I am choosing to be vulnerable and share my life with yours. I have a beautiful family. I have passions for photography, technology, teaching, and education. I am fascinated by psychology and the human mind. I watch true crime documentaries to find peace with my chaotic brain. I read romantic thrillers to feel at ease with my recklessly romantic heart. I have been recently diagnosed with Bipolar II, ADHD, and PTSD, and while I’ve struggled my whole life with the anxieties and depression that coupled with these diagnoses, coming to terms with the late-in-life diagnosis has been more difficult than I expected. As I navigate a newer lifestyle of caring for my mental health, it helps me to be able to help others.
