Administrator and Founder of The Butler's Pantry

A certified sign language interpreter (and once a licensed minister), I have been involved in several projects over the years, including Deaf ministry, ladies ministry, singles ministry, and nursing home outreach.  I love to travel and have had the privilege of meeting several actors during the course of the last few years - mostly from attending conventions, both as a spectator and as staff.

My first love is music, but in 2004 I was introduced to my first real internet 'fandom' for the actor Steve Bacic.  I joined his forum entirely on a whim, but it was their kind words of welcome and encouragement that kept me going back.  They truly have been a godsend to me, for it was not too long after that that I began going through what has been thus far the most trying time of my life.  It was a time of great change and I was experiencing a lot of growing pains, but these ladies helped me to evolve and grow into the person I am today.  Though I may branch off into other areas to 'spread my wings' as it were, the "BaChicks" will always hold a special place in my heart.

A few months ago, I began contemplating building this website and forum community.  Having received so many rewards and blessings from others, I figured it was time I gave something back in return - not only to Gerard Butler and the countless hours of entertainment he has given his fans, but to his fans as well.  So on October 28, 2008, this website and the accompanying forum was born.

In my "spare" time (what little of it there is these days), I love to cook, write, and eat (not necessarily in that order, and not necessarily at the same time, but sometimes maybe).  I also love to laugh and make people laugh, because laughter is a medicine that it greatly lacking in the world today.  I don't always succeed in making people laugh, but I'm always trying (sometimes I'm very trying, but that's another story for another time).
