With much anticipation and several delays, I am finally launching my website today, March 13th, 2015. This date is very significant to me because four years ago today was the evening I questioned whether or not I was going to die. It was March 13th, 2011, three days after my first ablation, my heart rate soared to more than 250 beats per minute. As a result, my defibrillator fired 18 times in less than an hour. It was the most […]
October of 2014 was an interesting month. It was scary, because everything I had worked towards for two years could have easily been taken away. But at the same time, it was exciting. I was able to see exactly what I was working towards; I saw the light at the end of the tunnel through the eyes of others.

July was another month dedicated to achieving goals and crossing things off my to-do list for my milestone 40th year. Some important items on the list included seeing the 4th of July Fireworks show at our nation’s capital in Washington DC, and finishing my journey of seeing a home game at all 30 Major League Baseball (MLB) stadiums. I love setting goals for myself, and this month it was even better to be able to cross some of them off […]
June was a significant milestone month for me. I turned 40 on June 8th, and knew I wanted to share something special with my friends and family. Milestones are important to me, so I put a lot of thought into my birthday week. I spent a lot of time doing different things and enjoyed some of my favorite restaurants and activities: I traveled, enjoyed time with the people I care about, and prepared for my hiking expedition to Mt. Everest […]
