A bit about me . . . I currently live in Newtown, CT with my three kids, 4 dogs and a lizard. I am making things happen all day, most every day, personally and professionally; if I don’t know how to make it happen, I will work until I figure it out. Rarely will you see me without a smile on my face, because, in the grand scheme of things, life is good.
