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 blogger, sports fan, foodie, disabled woman, word search enthusiast, ambivert, and everyday girl, I embrace my multifaceted identity. I live in Jacksonville with my mom, cherishing my roots and the vibrant community that shapes me.

I Wish You

Robin Sykes

When you’re Lonely, I Wish you Love. When you’re Sad, I Wish you’re Joy. When you’re Discrouraged, I Wish you Hope. When your Spirit is Low, I Wish you Beauty. When you’re Troubled, I Wish you Peace.

Success & Blessings
