I am the girl that will invite a stranger to sit down and have a cup of coffee with me. I am the girl that is best friends with the crossing guard at the office. I am the girl that loves the daily commute into the city. Graffiti on hardscapes elicits images in my mind of the artist going to great lengths to find the perfect canvas. To share her story.

The skyline of Philadelphia when it comes into view early in the morning feels like a big Good Morning from the universe. Seeing the same people each day get their cup of coffee, reading the news on the train, acknowledging each other with a nod, glance, smile, creating a relationship without words. And then one day, they are gone. We never see each other again but we walked with each other for a while and without words, we impacted each other’s life.

 I am told that people feel comfortable with me. That is my gift in life. It certainly has always been my goal! I cannot think of anything more uncomfortable than to be in a position where you do not feel like you can be yourself.  

I view everyone with the same lens. The way I see it, whether you are a public figure, CEO of a Fortune 500, construction worker, elderly person living alone or an individual struggling with life, we all put our pants on the same way EVERY day! We all have different views and beliefs!

 We all have a story! Our own unique story!
