Personal Summary:
I am a recent graduate from UW-Platteville. I majored in general and instrumental music education. I have had my own music teaching business off and on since sophomore year of high school. For the past year, I have been developing an idea for a cake decorating business (something I got into during college). I have been working on my recipes and decorating techniques all along; now I just need to put them to work. Someday I'd like to own my own shop.
