Writing my way to an independent life.

Hello!

​

I am a former classroom teacher, recent empty nester, newbie RVer, and aspiring writer.

 
After finding myself at a significantly pivotal time in my life,  I had a choice to make. I faced a career challenge that forced me to contemplate my future, and I saw an opportunity. 

​

I love teaching, but after twelve years in the public school setting, I knew that if I wanted to make a difference, I would need to leave the classroom for good.  

 

So I did.

Now, I am teaching remotely and traveling the country.

 

Once I saw the lifestyle I wanted, becoming

a  reality, I put my writing skills to use, built a website,

and started a blog to share my journey.
