Now that we're acquainted, here's a little backstory.

My childhood was...different. Most kids grow up in the same place, with the same friends since kindergarten, finally venturing out into unknown lands in their early twenties when they realize going to Orlando for spring break hasn't made them a world traveler. Not me. You see, my house moved.

When I was six months old, my parents sold everything they owned, purchased a recreational vehicle (yep, an RV) and began a decade-long adventure as vagabond puppeteers. No kidding. We were basically carnies.

We traveled up and down the state of California, and neighboring states, dazzling audiences of children with singing, dancing, prizes, skits, lots of candy, and of course, puppets. I would go to sleep in one city and wake up 100 miles up the coast the next morning. It sounds like something out of a movie, but at the time, it was all I knew. Didn’t everyone live this way – making new friends every week, viewing the world as your limitless front yard, feeling like a VIP at your own traveling spectacle? No, that didn’t happen to you?

I came out of that experience taller, wiser, and with a few more fillings than a child should probably ever have in their baby teeth, but otherwise unscathed. That vibrant life filled with music and imagination instilled a deep creative drive within me that has propelled my adult career choices, first as a journalist and artist, and now as a content marketer and photographer.

I've worked in the newspaper and magazine industry, for a TV show, for a well-known outdoor retailer, and for several award-winning creative agencies. Now, I partner with small businesses like yours to grow your customer base through social media.
