As many of you already know, I am waist deep in marathon training right now. As I\’m writing this, I\’m mentally preparing myself for a 16 mile run in the morning. We are over halfway done with training, the race is less than two months away, and I almost wanted to call it quits this […]
Well, cat\’s out of the bag! By now, many people already know that I resigned from my position as Student Activities Coordinator at Lake Area Technical College. While I enjoyed working at LATC, I felt it was time to hang up my hat on student activities. For the most part, I enjoyed my job, but

This weekend marks one year since I published my first novel, Sink or Swim! It\’s hard to believe it\’s already been that long and thinking back, I\’ve done a lot of work since then.
