With age comes experience and a broader perspective of the World. I have fine tuned my style sense and self care to be uniquely my own. I love being a role model to my three children, seeing them blossoming into kind, thriving and self loving young adults. Trying to give them guidance and grace to become fabulous as they shape their own style and personalities. I have a greater sense of calm, confidence, and openness to all experiences, including things that could be difficult or uncomfortable.

I try not to obsess over age, but I do have an unrelenting curiosity and passion for skincare, color, fashion, and pop culture. Great personal style is an expression that doesn't require permission or validation. I remain diligent to a consistent skin care regimen, spending time creating beautiful makeup everyday, even if I don't leave the house. I facilitate healthy food choices for my family, while still being adventurous in preparing meals and family dinners.

First, I would donate to the National Breast Cancer Foundation and to Second Chance Boxer Rescue both organizations that I am passionate about. One of my most memorable trips was to the Montage Laguna Beach, where I stayed with my cousin. I would plan a return trip and spa weekend with my cousin and family to the Montage, as well as setting aside money for my children’s college education with the $40,000.
