The word “Serendipity” refers to the happy or beneficial occurrence of events by chance, a term coined by Horace Walpole in 1754, inspired by the Persian fairy tale “The Three Princes of Serendip.”
Growing up, I didn’t excel in school but eagerly took every art class available, using my creativity in various aspects of life without considering a path as a children’s author.
After studying Art History at a local college and attending trade schools, I unexpectedly transitioned into real estate. For over 20 years, being a Real Estate Broker has been a rewarding “accident,” allowing my husband and me to thrive in several successful businesses. This journey has been filled with serendipitous moments, especially since meeting my husband, Charlie, and sharing countless adventures together.
In 2016, inspired by my grandson’s excitement about camping, I wrote my first book, I Love To Go Camping. This was another example of serendipity in action. A few years later, I penned Lulu and Her New Best Friend with our granddaughter, Emmie, in mind. Throughout my life, I have been continually amazed by how serendipity brings unexpected joy and reminds me of my blessings.
