I enjoy writing as well as giving back to my community. I hold degrees in education and organizational leadership, and work full-time as director of my local small business center. Most often my ramblings are posted on Instagram via @hurley.writes where I have been able to discover and explore the hard things in life -- love, loss, change and growth. I am a single mom, so most of energies go to (and joy comes from) a very special little boy, Connor.
