I wear a lot of hats. Mama, wife, grandma, student, life long learner, attorney, novice baker, dreamer, risk-taker, and go-getter. As a young mama of five, it was through blood, sweat, tears, and a pure miracle that I graduated from Hastings College with honors before attending law school at the University of Texas at Austin.
While my work is incredibly important to me, my first love will always be my family and home. Here at Life by Starlight, I’d like to share that love with you. Whether it’s getting through my morning routine, decorating for the holidays, fitting in my yoga practice, playing with the pets, meal planning, or curling up in front of the fire with a good book and one of my adorable grandchildren, you’re always welcome to join me. Born and raised in South Central Nebraska, I learned at an early age that we keep hot coffee and iced tea at the ready, so trust me when I say, there’s always a place for you at our table.
Having recently left the Midwest to chase my latest dream, my husband, Dan, and I currently live in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York with the dwindling number of children who haven’t left the nest, our dog, Blue, and our son’s cat, Castle (long story, don’t ask).
