So you may be thinking, how does a British girl end up in America. Yes it was about a boy and 25 years later we are still together. 

 

One big thing to know about me is that I am a big animal lover, but could easily be a crazy cat lady, luckily my husband curbs my cat adopting and we just have 3. However I do get my kitten fix by fostering kittens, and my daughter and I bring them back to health to make them adoptable. 

 

My family and friends are everything to me. I've never missed a school field trip, football game or recital, well maybe a game, but I have spent entire lunch breaks driving to be there. 

 

My friends have been my friends since I can remember, all the way from play group (preschool) in Nottingham to Orlando Florida. We are still amazing friends all these years later and thanks to modern technology we still Facetime and take regular trips back to England.

 

My American friends have taught me so much through the years and helped me adjust to the ways of US life. I have been taught wonderful American traditions, recipes and lots of different terminology. 

 

Exercise has saved me, connected and revived me through my whole life. I have danced away stress in Zumba, breathed my way through yoga and recently have fun and found unexpected joy in line dancing. Healthy rap might also be a little unexpected fact about me, but it definitely helps me get through my gym workouts. 

 

Being a Live Wedding Painter and artist is my purpose and I truly believe I was born to create. God has always shown up with subtle reminders that I am right where I should be. Attending church has been a significant part of our life especially in recent years and is teaching me a lot about life.

 

Living life to the fullest is what I strive to do so I never miss an opportunity to create special moments and memories. 

A walk and a chat with a friend, a glass of prosecco, or a special meal with family won't be taken for granted. Facetime with my lovely and supportive mum and dad from across the pond is not only a big comfort but I am lucky to say gives us lots of laughs.

 

Finally when I'm checking my morning emails from you, know that I'm probably sitting in bed with a pot of Yorkshire tea in my parents old teapot, that has the silver peeling off, but I wouldn't replace or fix because it somehow brings me comfort. And yes the bump at the bottom of the bed is a cat who sneeked under the covers. My childhood bear still sits on my dresser. 

 

Can I meet you yet?

 

Say hello and fill out a contact form to see if we're a fit. My dates may be limited but my kindness is unlimited.
