One word that describes me: Nostalgic

Familiar music, smells, and other reminders of the past activate feelings.


I was raised by a women who wore dual faces all the time; she was whimsical and raw, fragile and fortified maybe that's how she had to be raising 2 children on her own. As matter of fact I'm sure of it as its hard even with two parents trying to define your identity while shaping your kids. One thing I do reflect on is how magical she made everyday feel for my brother and I, I find myself trying to mimic that with my children. Our household was always full of laughter, music,  and dancing but most importantly heavy on the love, herbal juices, tonics, anything that was said to be healthy well we probably tried it. As my friends liked to call my mom God's solider that also happened to be a hippie. So then there's me wife and mother of two, I'm my mom mixed with a little bit of rock and roll. I live for a good time, great food, travel and all things beautiful. I've traveled the world, I got to see a lot of captivating places and meet  some amazing people. I worked in the music industry for a number of years, trading in the fast life for the simple which is where I find my peace. I think it was one of the best decisions I ever made well maybe not the best but on my top 10 list of best decisions . I'm big on making moments, creating memories along the way and that alone drives a few people crazy. So here we are, her and I meeting in the middle of farm life and jet setting, green juice and champagne, kimchi and caviar trying to find balance in this crazy thing called life.
