About Me: 

I am married to the great love of my life. Mom to amazing children. Quasi chef. Lover of all things fashion and shoes related. I love to design and create fabulous clothing for today, but I also love Regency style and all things Jane Austen and spends countless hours designing and sewing day dresses and gowns for Jane Austen events and festivals.  I don't do diets. I do yoga. I love to sit in my house and look out at Puget Sound. I am the full-time caretaker of my Mom who suffers from Alzheimer’s, and my husband who has cancer. It is this role that defines me at this season of my life as The Care Giver.
