From the Caribbean Sea to Machu Picchu in Peru, and from birds to flowers and butterflies, Reflections and Treasured Wonders offers a collection of images gathered from around the world.
I believe that things happen for a purpose, and it is no accident that I am here! And as my mother used to say, 'I'll bloom where I'm planted!'
Background
Information
I strongly believe that we all possess gifts and abilities placed there by God, and have tried to use my life to learn what my gifts are and how best to apply them. Life is an exciting adventure, and we live and learn something worthwhile every single day...
As a small child, I loved to tuck myself away in a quiet, cozy place and get lost in the pages of a good book. That love for reading birthed my interest in writing, and my passion for the art of words has grown stronger with each passing year. I began writing poetry at a young age, and then short stories and finally my first book, "Perfect Wisdom" was published.
My life experience includes small business management and writing/copywriting. I've also been employed as a professional photographer among many other career paths that I've chosen over the years in various locations. I enjoy photographing things of beauty that surround me, the company of my family and my relationship with God.
