About me hmmm ok here goes… I am a... Real Estate agent with EXIT By The Bay Realty by day with over 15+ years in the industry working everything from learning the basics in an Appraisal office, to Realtor Assistant, Title/Settlement Officer and Mortgage Loan Officer... and I am an Artist by night... for the most part I am a private person... I am not the easiest person to get to know mostly because I tend to keep my guard up. Some may think I’m snobby and stuck up but others say I am mysterious… Snobby and stuck up I am not … Mysterious on the other hand … well maybe Heehee... but mostly just private. Soooo… if you’re here and reading… LOL!! Your one of the lucky!!! It’s a good thang embrace it!!! I tend to keep friends for life when I make them and am quite loyal to those friends. If you cross me that is a whole different story not super good at forgiving while I can BUT I think it’s more of a choice not to.

While I do work as a Realtor I am without a doubt a…

Hopeless Romantic, Dreamer, Visionary… Artist.... My art and my family are everything to me. I love to create works of art whether it be a Painting, Drawing, Photograph or a Sculpture/Pottery... I love getting lost in the imaginary worlds within each piece ... I guess you could say my art is my escape from the world.

I’m not big on fake… please don’t waste my time. If I don’t like you I will not pretend to. I just do not take kindly to anyone who interferes with my life. I absolutely hate people who play with other people’s lives. Yes I know that hate is a strong word and typically I would not use it, but sometimes it just fits. Not big on gossip and don’t appreciate others who attempt to gossip about me, Hello my life is not that exciting… get your own!!

“Live and let live”, that has always been a good motto to live by. “Can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all” … Yeah Thumper‘s mom could not have said it better. Funny how a Disney movie directed towards children has set better standards to live life by than some full grown adults do… So Sad!

Karma is something I truly believe in. Only put out what you in turn wish to receive. Good and Bad.

Lastly... I am truly a “California Girl” at heart. What can I say... you can take the girl out of California but you can’t take the California out of the girl! Yep I know I live in Southern Maryland... WTH... Do not get me wrong I like Maryland and very much enjoy all that it has to offer BUT ... There’s nothing quite like where you come from so yes I do still do a bit of “California Dreaming”.

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next.”
