About Me

I’m a 30-something designer/photographer/writer/mother. I began this blog in 2005, when I lived in idyllic bliss with my husband and newborn child. Fast forward a couple of years, and you’ll watch my marriage crumble and fail due to infidelity, my self-esteem sink into a downward spiral, my descent into depression and all the wonderful people/things/moments that helped pull me out of it.

If you’re really bored you may notice many of my titles are song titles/lyrics. I am full of useless pop trivia.

I live in Houston, TX with my daughter, my dog, my two cats that refuse to die(edit: Akasha passed in Jan. 2010), and an endless stream of men coming in and out of my home.  Just kidding… about the men part.  The rest is true.

In my spare time, I am a partner with OMC Studios, a photography company, and I also write for the Houston Chronicle at http://www.chron.com/channel/momhouston/commons/suburbangoddess.html. Someday I hope to be self-employed so I can lay around in my pajamas all day, but in the meantime I have a day job as an Art Director for an undisclosed company.  I spend countless hours playing with Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, and someday hope to teach them to up and coming designers.  Because those who cant, TEACH. :)
