Hometown: Vernon BC, Canada
Current location: Prince George BC, Canada
Occupation: Virtual Assistant / BellyDance Instructor

Interests: Dancing, Painting, Gardening
Dreams: I’m living them!  I get to work at home, make my own schedule, and not bother with a car; I have a big yard now with a big garden that’s probably going to get bigger every year; I get to teach dance classes out of my own home studio; I have a sweetie that loves and supports me; I have two kitties.  The only thing I would change is to move back to southern BC so that I can ditch the long winters and have a longer growing season.

How long have you used reusable menstrual products?: Since January of this year and I’m never going back!
Reason for making the switch to reusables: I hated to think of all the garbage I was creating using disposables, and I wanted to lose the “diaper rash” that most of those so-called dry weave products always gave me.  GladRags made complete sense as soon as I heard of them, and once I learned that I could use my soaking water to nourish my plants I was completely sold!

Funny anecdotes, deep thoughts, or anything else you’d like to share: My favorite quote that I like to remember whenever I’m hesitating about trying something new: “Don’t worry if you fall flat on your face – at least you’re moving forward” - Anonymous
