{getting ready before a 9:30 club show this past weekend}
Those of you that know me personally, know that I am one busy girl! For those of you who don’t know me, it’s time to confess. Aside from being a fashion blogger, I am an environmental consultant, part-time grad student and licensed real estate agent. Often people ask me, how do you do it all? How do you manage all this and still make time for blogging? The truth is, you make time in your life for the things you are most passionate about. Not only does this mantra apply to my professional career, but it is something I have always lived by in my relationships. If someone wasn’t giving me the attention I deserved, I knew it wasn’t meant to be because you make time for the things that matter most.
As a 9-to-5 consultant, I work on helping agencies become more sustainable. I provide them with the knowledge and tools they need to protect the environment and conserve resources. As a real estate agent, I help friends and family purchase or sell their home. I have always had a love for real estate and since there aren’t an abundance of agents you can trust, I deem it my duty to be an honest and reliable source for one of the biggest purchases one will make in their life. And last but not least, as a part-time grad student I will have my MBA by March. Hooray!
Over the last few years, blogging has been the perfect creative outlet for me. It has inspired me to decorate my new home, share tips on affordable fashion, and most importantly it has connected me to amazing new friends or blogger bffs as I like to call them. Not only do I have something to confess today, but so do my blogger bffs. They too make time for blogging given their professional careers.
To read up on their Blogger Confessions* head over to Apollinas, Rosa Loves DC, and TheYouFinder.
*Blogger Confessions is a new series that a few bloggers in the DC area have decided to participate in. It hopes to capture the multifaceted lives that many bloggers live in, but sometimes is not highlighted in our blogs.
Yay for almost being done with your MBA, blogger bff!
hip hip hooray:)

Thanks A!
I love this idea! I always wish I knew a little more about bloggers, and I think that for all the haters out there, it is so important to see that not only are we living busy, exciting, admirable lives, but we also look good doing it.
Congrats on all your successes–I’m sure there are many more to come, and I look forward to reading about them.

Thanks Roya! So sweet of you:)

Glad to see you’ve stayed with the MBA program. You are probably are in the home stretch now of that final group project. Imagine what you will do with all that free time you no longer have to read articles or write papers. It has been interesting to see what item you’ve pick up next for your place or for the fashion collection. Please give my best to all the survivors from your section. All the Best and keep up the blogging.
