About Me: 

I am the wife of a wonderfully supportive husband and the mother of two beautiful children. I am passionate about my family and my career, and I work hard to maintain my work-life integration. I’ve worked in an office, from home, and as a stay-at-home mom. Each situation presents unique challenges, so I created CareerMama as a forum for moms to share their ideas with each other, as well as guidance for new moms and soon-to-be moms.
