Hi there! Welcome to my site, VegasParents.com.
If you’re on this page, then your looking for information, about me. I’m not big on sharing things about myself, but I do love to share my adventures with my kids!
But since the entire purpose of this page is me….here it goes;
I moved to Las Vegas from Seattle in 2002. I fell in love with the warmth of the desert and the massive growth the city continues to go through.
In 2006 I gave birth to fraternal twin girls. They changed my life in all the best ways.
As a stay at home in an unhealthy marriage, I knew I needed to make my own money but not sacrifice the time I had being at home with my daughters.
I I joined mom groups that morphed into me running my own groups. I wanted my girls to socialize, meet friends, and see what Las Vegas has to offer families.
After months of working on filling my groups calendar with fun activities I thought to myself, why not share with everyone I can reach?
In 2008, blogging was all the rage. I found a passion of sharing information to be extremely satisfying. By 2009 when I completed my family with my 3rd daughter, my blog was profitable.
This income allowed me to divorce my husband and provide for my children while staying at home. I don’t talk much about my ex-husband, or what we went through. I will say, I am now married to my other half. I always thought that was such a dumb statement. Until I began living it. It’s weird, and totally awesome at the same time!
In 2016 I was offered a job teaching media arts at a local charter school. I sold my website and took the teaching position completely excited to teach middle schoolers about media arts and technology. I can’t say it enough, I LOVED teaching. The staff, teachers, kids, families, environment, everything was too good to be true. I cried every break from missing my students. These kids, they are so awesome. Don’t ever doubt the love we have for your kids, it’s there. It was also exhausting and I realized that I was using my past experiences in the web design, marketing, and videography as material.
To grow, I need to continue working with social media, email marketing, web design, graphic design, digital photography, copy writing, and videography. So here I am, again 🙂 This time, I’m running VegasParents.com. As my kids have grown, so will my content. I’m wondering where COVID-19 will take us in the future as businesses recover and grow.
Thank you so much for following my page and wave if you see us in public!
