From a very early age I was drawn to pictures and the stories they told. Every time I went to my grandmothers house I ran to grab her photo albums so I could look through them and ask who the people in the pictures were, where they were, how old the people were and what ever other questions I could come up with. It didn't get old for me, I asked the same questions and looked at her albums over and over again. One day I decided I was going to make baby scrapbooks for my siblings and myself, since we didn't have them. I sorted through all of our pictures, went through magazines to cut out words and sayings, drew pictures and added small embellishments to each page. It was then that I realized I loved creating things out of pictures. My life led me to become a Financial Executive. Being very organized, having the ability to manage high level projects and people, having great problem solving skills and being a creative thinker made me successful in my career, however, I felt something was missing. I feel like I have come full circle since I have found a way to use my business background and my love for photos and became a Certified Professional Photo Manager. I now enjoy helping others preserve their family memories and tell their families stories so they can be passed down to future generations.
