I am a native of Atlanta, GA and I am married to the love of my life. One thing I find unique about me is that I love my gray strands and I prefer to wear my hair in its natural state. I don't like hair straighteners. One of my favorite things to do is lay on high quality bedding sheets with a glass of red wine and interesting reading material. I'm delighted to report no red wine spills as of yet. LOL!
I attended a summer program at UAB. One day while there, my roommate and I decided to take a walk and visit the buildings that were open on the campus since our day ended shorter than usual. Everyone else went partying but we stayed behind to be nosey...lol. Out of the buildings we visited that day, the school of Optometry made my top 5 list. After weighing my pros and cons, I applied and 4 years later...VOILA! 😊
