My New Normal

:

In 2007 the non-profit art organization that I'd founded and ran for over 10 years closed because of the economy. I learned so much and helped so many artists. I am taking that experience and now starting a practice as an artists career coach. I have to work part-time answering phones for a local restaurant and get help from my mother but more and more I am getting out there and bringing in money. I'd like to give up the restaurant job and bring my experience to a company or non-profit full time but until then I am grateful for what I have.
