Shannon's 11 Questions For Me: 
Q: Where would you like to travel to but have never been?
A: I would like to travel to more places than I have been. I am very interested in people and culture, so I would love to travel all around the world; first stop, Europe.

Q: What's a habit that you want to break?
A: I have a habit of being over critical of myself and it is a habit that I desperately need to break.

Q: If you could do your dream job, what would that be?
A: My dream job would allow me to encompass my passion for art and design with psychology. Art Therapy seems like a comparable solution, but I have yet to study within the field.

Q: Who is your favorite music artist?
A: I listen to a lot of music and I tend to go through my phases - rock, alternative, r&b, country, rap, jazz - but no matter what phase I am in I always listen to Kirk Franklin.

Q: Do you have any hidden talents?
A: Yes, graphic design.

Q: What award would you like to win and for what achievement?
A: It would be nice to win some type of Philanthropy award for establishing a place for children to go to grow and express themselves through art in third world countries; with a little elbow grease maybe one day I will win such an award.

Q: If you could step in a time machine, where and when would you travel to and why?
A: It would be nice to travel to the future to see what the world is like; then maybe I could come back to the present with ideas on how to make an impact on the world in a big way.

Q: Do you have any hobbies?
A: I'm so glad you asked. (**smile) I make jewelry - Pure Love. Also, I paint and sketch when I find the time. I would like to take on other hobbies - like knitting - to add another dimension to my art.

the original was transferred onto the cardboard seen above)   

Q: What made you smile today?
A: I smiled today after hearing a little girl's laughter. She was playing with her mothers braided hair and while doing so she asked repeatedly, "how do you braid hair?" Her mother replied each time "I will teach you." After the little girl asked a fourth time the mother replied, "if you ask me again I will scream." The little girl laughed and asked a fifth time "how do you braid hair?" Her laughter and harmless badgering made me smile.

Q: Top 3 most fun things you've done in life?
A: One- Visiting an alligator habitat in Miami, Florida.
Two-Vacationing in San Antonio, Texas with close friends for Spring Break.
Three- Jet skiing with my boyfriend in Ocean City, Maryland.

Q: Name one of the most inspirational people in your life and why?
A: My grandmother inspires me daily in so many ways; however, I admire her most for her willingness to give so much of herself to others.
