August 10, 2001: I am the owner of a graphic design / marketing consultant business in Aurora, Ohio. I build websites, create graphics and and e-commerce solutions for small businesses across the country. In addition to owning a business, I also create events for the city planning commission to generate business for local merchants who are just starting out in our city. I am one of the few lucky people who can actually say that they love what they do for a living. I have a great job that allows me to be creative and have fun at the same time.

I have been surrounded by animals ever since I was a small child. I have had cats, fish, turtles, hamsters, gerbils, ferrets, toads and many other critters that I have forgotten about over the years. I currently have seven ferrets, two cats, two hamsters, and a seventy-five gallon aquarium that is stocked with fancy goldfish.

My hobbies include singing and playing the piano, rollerblading (I am also a rollerblading instructor), painting, writing poetry and building computers. I am also a full-time student at Lakeland Community College. I am majoring in psychology with a minor in business management.
