I love watching soccer. My daughter has played since the age of 5. I also love to hear my daughter and son play their guitars and sing. Both of the programs I mentioned in the "About Me" section are my main interest. I enjoy working on these programs and helping them to grow. I am also, a former dance instructor so I enjoy dancing when I get the chance. I hope you will visit my new online store www.ShopShack.org which was created, in part, to help support my non profit organization, Athletes Kickin' Cancer.

About me: I am the Founder of Athletes Kickin' Cancer Non Profit Organization, the Soccer Sisters Program and an online store www.ShopShack.org. You may visit the web sites of these programs at the following addresses...www.AthletesKickinCancer.com and www.SoccerSisters.net. There is also a MySpace www.MySpace.com/athleteskickincancer.com.

Who I'd like to meet: I would like to meet any athlete who has an inspiring story of their own that may be of interest to our readers on either of my program web sites. Our programs offer scholarships but also, we post stories of athletes who have fought cancer, have parents who are fighting cancer, and athletes who continue to play their sport while facing other health related issues or adversities.
