Wow, how do you summarize who you are in only a few short paragraphs? I’ve got many, MANY years of past experiences that have helped to define who I am today. Where to begin?
I suppose the #1 role that currently defines me best is “working mom of two”. However, there’s so much more to me than that… “mom” just happens to be the most IMPORTANT role I have (in my eyes).
I have 2 wonderful kids (2 1/2 years old & 10-months old) and a great husband. I work part-time in a finance/investing environment with my dad, AND I can bring the kids into the office if necessary (score!). I take my job as mom very seriously, and spend my days entertaining the kids, trying to keep them out of trouble, cooking, tidying, running errands… y’know, the usual mom stuff.
In addition to “being a mom”, I also love to: travel, snowboard, shop, paint, draw, read, shop, do outdoor activities, dabble in photography and shop.
My path to where I am today goes something like this –> University (B.Comm), career at big accounting firm, CA designation, 1 year sabbatical to volunteer in a seniors home & a Jamaican basic school, solo trip to Europe, officially quit my accounting job to get an art certificate (just for fun), contract work as a consultant, teacher’s college, back to accounting, marry my hubby, and have 2 adorable kids.
It’s as simple as that 🙂
