About me: Instructional Designer and Web, Multimedia & Business Applications Trainer in Pennsylvania. Travel junkie, photography and wanna be
rockstar.
Married my husband Michael in
Honolulu in 2005, we were best friends for 6 years.
I wanted to be a rockstar,
makeup artist to the stars
I used to play guitar, sing and
write poetry
Styx is my favorite band
Tommy Shaw of Styx is my teen
idol. I met him in 1998.
My hair has been every color you
can imagine
My favorite television show ever
was Melrose Place
My dad was pipefitter and mom a
banquet server
I was the first one from my
family to graduate school
My mom didn't talk to me for 2
years while living in the same house after enrolling in college
She kicked me out of the house
after I graduated
I got a job teaching business
school part time in the evenings to help pay my rent (it paid more than the
mall)
That job led me to my career now
- I am a Web Designer, Instructional Designer and Corporate Software
Trainer.
I love my Tivo box and iPod
I watched every episode of Sex and the City, ANTM, American Idol
I drink Diet Dr. Pepper
I love MAC Cosmetics, especially eyeshadow
I reapply lip gloss almost all
day
My first job was at Burger King,
I "wised up" in high school and because I didn't like my hands smelling like
mayo
Other jobs included John
Wanamaker's (security) and Strawbridges (retail), Macy's (trainer)
In my home office I write with
crayons, I like color and how smooth they write
I can type 75 wpm
My eyes are hazel, but sometimes
look blue
I hate when someone doesn't try
I have taught Microsoft Excel
over 250 times at least
I have menus for Word, Excel,
PowerPoint and Outlook memorized from teaching them so much
I had my palm read when I was 20
years old and most of those things have come true or were true
Then 2nd time it was read
everything else was true after that. I swear I gave nothing away.
I have been told that I can read
people really well
I am somewhat physic and this
makes me a good teacher and salesperson
I actually own Pirates of
Silcone Valley and watch it every so often
I have 2 tattoos on my right ankle - a multi colored butterfly and a red rose with a vine to my foot - there will be more.
I went horseback riding for the
first time when I was 30, I wanted to my entire life
I liked it so much I paid for
lessons for a year with Michael
We rode to the top of the
Wasatch Mountains in Utah 6600 feet. I was scared, but needed to do it.
We also rode horses in Alaska
I like compliments, but I hate
when people fawn over me
Who I'd like to meet: Met Tommy Shaw from Styx already, everyone doesn't matter. But - Samantha Brown from Travel Channel, Clinton Kelly, Michael Kors and Steve Jobs from Apple Computers.
