Light up your world
A little bit of extra free time has turned into something positive. By making microscopic goals and sticking to them, I started something that I always wanted to do. I created an online store selling unique and personalized baby products at a more affordable price point for new moms. I am really excited about this... Continue Reading →
It's been a while since I've written a blog post, but, of course, that doesn't mean that my mind isn't always running a one hundred metre sprint.

The evolution of technology is truly fascinating. The things that are now possible with just a smartphone can really add value and facilitate our lives tremendously.

You ever catch yourself mindlessly scrolling through social media posts, only to find yourself dissatisfied with some aspect of your life? Maybe it's your work situation, your body, or something else you've suddenly realized you're lacking.
