bio...
BPS: What do we need to know about you?
TS: I am to married Mike, the man who supports my extreme paper product addiction!! I have two wonderful children: Michael is twelve and Alyssa is sixteen. I have lived in Arizona for the last 30 years. I have been hooked on scrapbooking for almost 10 years now and have enjoyed teaching for the last five. When I am not making a mess in my scrapbook room or driving my kids somewhere, I love to read a good book or attend my tap dance class.
BPS: What do you like about your friends?
TS: I think the thing I like most about my friends is that they make me laugh, and they are always there, whether it is 6:00 in the morning or midnight. My good friends know I am a little goofy, sometimes disorganized and always overbooked - and love me anyways!
BPS: Where do you hope to go?
TS: I would love to travel outside the United States more; it has always been a dream of mine to go to Australia, Italy and France. I have a couple of teaching trips that will take me outside the country this year which I am pretty excited about, but I would love to travel to a European country with my family; I think that would be fabulous!
BPS: What do you need every day?
TS: To really be in my zone, I need about 6 hours of sleep and one sugar-free Red Bull drink to jumpstart me in the morning. From there, a good day consists of having a balance of time with my kids and husband so I stay plugged into their daily lives, then at least an hour to myself to do something that charges me up, whether it is going to dance class, reading a book, creating art, or cleaning out a closet that is been driving me crazy!
BPS: What's your favorite line?
TS: This is a hard question………I don't really have a favorite line, but I LOVE the Star Wars series of movies, and my husband and I have been known to sneak up on my son and say in a very deep mechanical voice: " Luke, I am your Father!" I know we are weird!
BPS: Where do you wish you could shop?
TS: I love shopping for hidden treasure: I wish had the time to travel to all the most fabulous flea markets in the United States and Europe and dig for funky junky finds to my hearts content! I am hoping that this year I will make it to the Rose Bowl Flea Market in Los Angeles!
BPS: What do you believe in?
TS: I believe that our own attitudes shape our destiny and daily happiness to a large degree. Facing life with a positive outlook and looking for the good in others as well as ourselves makes for a happier life. Dream big, plan well, work hard, smile a lot, and lots of good things will happen.
BPS: If you could take only one thing before you left the planet, what would you take?
TS: My scrapbooks. I never want to forget the memories, photos and stories saved in those books… they are my history.
BPS: Why are you teaching this class?
TS: I enjoy teaching because I enjoy connecting with people that have the same passions that I do. I love sharing creative ways to preserve memories, and the creative exchange of ideas that always goes on in a class!
