The clock of life is wound but once, And no man has power To tell just when the hands will stop At late or early hour. To lose one’s wealth is sad indeed. Too lose one’s health is more. To lose one’s soul is such a loss That no man can restore. Today, only is our own. So live, love and toil with a will Place no faith in tomorrow, For the clock may soon be still.

Born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, I am the youngest of eight siblings. My father has passed away, but my parents, both everyday people and U.S. Army veterans, instilled strong values in me. I graduated from Jean Ribault Senior High School and went on to earn my bachelor's degree in English with an emphasis in professional writing, graduating cum laude from Grand Canyon University. Currently, I am an Avon independent sales ambassador. I am a Christian, a proud Florida girl, and an encourager. As a millennial, blogger, disabled woman, ambivert, and everyday woman, I embrace my multifaceted identity. I live in Jacksonville with my mom, cherishing my roots and the vibrant community that shapes me.
