Central Florida Mom Life

Lakeland Mom Blog

Welcome to My Blog!

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a writer, storyteller, and community-minded mom living in Lakeland, Florida (near Orlando) with my husband, Wyatt, whom I met as a graduate student, and our two daughters, Wynonna and Krysta.

Before becoming a full-time mom blogger, I spent years working at an arts center, and in media—mostly radio and sound tech. I’m also a musician, having played the piano for over 20 years. I grew up in Brooklyn but moved to Lakeland 10 years ago.

During that time, I learned how powerful everyday voices can be. I worked at an arts center and served as a reporter.

Now, as a mom raising two energetic girls in the heart of Florida, this blog is where all those threads come together.

My Lakeland Mom Blog is a space for storytelling, local life, reflection, and community building. Here you’ll find family adventures, honest conversations, creative projects, and practical tips—woven together with the same care and curiosity that shaped my earlier work.

Thanks for joining me. I’m excited to share this journey with you.
