I like to help people realize their dreams. It's almost an obsession with me. I see potential and I plot and plan on how to help friends and family get there. I have decided to broaden the scope and help you too.

First, I have to tell you why I am this way. My Mom rocked. She knew I had a unique mindset that didn't fit in with the rest of the family. And she encouraged it. At age 4 when I wanted to be a singer and disc jockey, she gave me albums and a radio. Heck, she sang with the Metropolitan Opera in High School, so why couldn't her girl do anything she wanted?

The bummer was when she died. I was 14 and just starting to spread my wings. Instead of listening to what I "couldn't" do from others, I took the lessons she taught me and ended up doing some crazy cool things. I was a summer nanny for the kids of a Today show anchor, and then for an actor's kid. I sang in talent shows and with anyone who would let me. Then I hounded a radio station so much that they handed me a job.

I didn't let the negativity stop me. Now it's my mission to not let it stop you. Why shouldn't you live your dream? There is always a way around obstacles. And age is no obstacle, by the way.

Here's how this will work. You present your dream to me. Email me on my profile page.  Each week, I'll blog advice and strategies that anyone can use. Dreams can come true and we are about to prove it!
