About Me

Woman, mother, wife, artist to the depth of my soul, small business owner, geek, introvert, thinker, klutz, goof. 40/F/Toronto. Hi!


Meet Steven, my husband. He's an 8 year old, wrapped up in the body of a 43 year old. He makes me laugh every single day. No matter what. He is an incredibly talented Casting Director, my partner in crime, an exemplary father to our boys.


We have a very functional dysfunctional relationship. We both have what we like to call, our 'crazies' But we've become pretty darn good at navigating through it. We had a few things thrown at us - custody issues, step-parenting, infertility - and kind of proud to say we've come out the other end better people, better partners, better friends.

I have 2 insanely beautiful boys, Liam, 14, and Izaiah, now 21 months. They are my reason for being. I am so damn proud, it makes me giddy just looking at this picture. I am grateful, and blessed, and in love with these two humans. This is sprinkled by isolated moments when being mom makes me want to stab myself in the eye with a fork, but most days, I am simply in awe.


I run my two businesses from home. All my artistic and professional ambitions are locked into one of these endeavours.  I've been blessed with doing something I love for a living. But I'll come back to that.

I spend a lot of time in my head. I talk to myself. A lot. Not in the crazy talk way (okay, maybe just a little). More in the ‘constant internal dialogue’ kinda way. The noise inside my head needs to be heard. So here it is, in all its glory. I feel somewhat naked and vulnerable writing my second post tonight, as I talk about stuff that, well, I just don’t talk about all that much. I just think a lot.

We are all faulty. We are all defective. Some of us, halves of a whole. Some of us broken. Most of us fully functional, with some crutches. Moving along, trying to find our own, and hopefully have some fun while doing it.

So here it is folks. My name is Alex.
