The War on Free Press
While I work in marketing and have no desire to ever go into journalism, that’s essentially what my communications degree is in.

Baby Boomers are the Best and Millennials are the Worst
I am a millennial. Now before you try and fight me on it, just let me have it. I have done papers. I fall in the years of millennials so please don’t even go there. I’m not Gen Z. I am the “problem” generation. I am constantly pulling HR articles for social media posting at […]

The One-Size-Fits-All Blogging Method
I’m sure you’ve seen it, heck, maybe even my click bait title got you here, but here’s the thing: There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to blogging. According to the “experts”, I’m a failure. I’ve yet to make a dime off of this corner of the internet, so if that’s why you’re here you […]

As I mentioned briefly when we having coffee last weekend, I got a cat! She is five years old, rescued from a cat specific rescue league. Her name is Leslie Knope (but really goes by baby or sweetheart) and she is the most precious thing ever. She doesn’t like to be held but she need […]
