About me

Hi, Nice to Meet You

I'm a wife, a mother to boy/girl twins, an observer, a guide, and someone who believes our past is our compass to our future. 


A long time ago, when I began college, I was working towards a degree in creative writing with the goal of being a writer. Somehow, I ended up with a degree in Sociology/ Criminal Justice with the goal of being a police officer. 

Clearly, the latter is not where I landed.

I'm Mandy

In 2008, my life halted for quite some time when I had twins. I chose to stay home and raise them full-time—a decision that took me far off the paths I had imagined.


While it could be considered a "setback" by society, it allowed me to find myself on a deeper scale, and I am honored I got to work full-time toward watching and raising two human beings. 


As we teeter on the edge of them graduating high school, it's time for me to spread my own wings.


It's time for me to return to my original plan.

I'm Happy You're Here

In 2020, I started The Mystics Club, an online store with carefully curated items for the magical soul. 


Currently, I work part-time at a Pilates studio, which lets me build connections and join my local community.


As of this year, I have closed my online store, and I am stepping into the role that I've dreamed of all along- to be a writer.


Thanks for joining me on this new adventure.
