My Life Story

Here is where you’ll find out more about me than you ever thought imaginable. It’s my life story, year by year. I will likely be working on this project for a while longer, but it’s a lot of fun, and I have a lot to share. It’s my version of the “book” I always wanted to write, so to speak.
