About Me

My family and closest friends have called me Bee for decades. Early on, I adopted the bee as my icon…a logo of sorts. Forever enchanted by their resilience and design, the connection has stuck. Bee(ing Fancy) pays homage to my favorite little creatures…my nickname, and also to my love for color, vibrancy, and adding celebration to every facet of life. Whether a true holiday, or simply humanity and life in general. In my book, Be(eing) Fancy means nothing more than be(eing) you.

I love cooking, baking, and wine. I am known for my hilarious(ly bad) jokes, love of gift-giving and making people cry, and trying to engage my husband in deep conversation at 2:00 in the morning.

I am married to the love of my life, an electrical engineer named Bryan who is my anchor and voice of reason. His even temper and staidness are my anchor and keep my capricious little feet firmly on the ground. He falls asleep early, and I do my best thinking at night. He’s great with numbers, I cross my fingers and hope for the best. Together, we are building a home filled with books, good food, love, two impossibly goofy rescue dogs named Allie and Jasper, and just enough reason to keep him sane.

In my spare time, I enjoy changing my mind on paint colors, reading, writing, entertaining, spending time outside, and traveling.

For me, I hope that 2018 brings me my first half-marathon, a return to fitness, creativity, new friendships, job satisfaction, and calmness.

For you, I hope it brings passion and dreams come-true.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you’ll stay a while.
