A Little About Adrienne

I was born and raised in Oshawa, ON Canada. At age 16, I started working in a local home-building store – long before The Home Depot and Lowe’s dominated that industry. Near the end of high school, I joined an inventory service as part of the counting crew. I glimpsed my future husband through the stockroom shelves of a Canadian Tire store. After I earned a four year degree in Sociology, we married. I have worked full time since 1995. My career took us from Oshawa to Marlborough MA and we are now settled in Atlanta, GA.

Romantic, isn’t it?
Aren’t we adorable?

Together, Pat and I nurture a love that includes each other, fitness, and travel. Visiting locales, enjoying experiences, and making memories is now the way we want to live. 9-5 really gets in the way. I hatched a plan to get us both out of the proverbial “rat race.”

More of this – so much more of this

One of my top skills is written communication. It was a key to my marketing/sales career. Recently, I asked myself “Could writing be the key to a future in which I decide when and where I earn income?” This blog is a vehicle through which I am transforming myself from an email-crafter into a story-teller.
