I also love reading autobiographies of historical figures (biographies are too textbook like), mysteries, and horror.

I collect books that I read as a child and read them to my own children. I am building a library of my favorite childhood authors and books who/which are: Judy Bloom, Dr. Seuss, Eric Carle, Robert Munsch, Tomie DePaola, V.B. Williams, Claire Huchet Bishop and Kurt Wiese (The Five Chinese Brothers), Sweet Valley Series (Creator: Francine Pascal), and R.L. Stine.

I am a serial entrepreneur and currently own 2 businesses that are developing and launching in 2013. I plan to own more businesses in the future. My dream is to become a location independent paperless entrepreneur which will allow me to travel inernationally with my 3 beautiful children. In my spare time, I study Spanish, Italian, and Swedish.
