Work is good


Just a quick update. Work life is still an awesome life. 


I love my job.


I've met so many great people, learned even more about my state, politics, policy, and communications. I'm writing an article about my experience and more for Sweet Lemon Magazine...so stay tuned!


I work in the most amazing, historic building in Atlanta - the State Capitol - and I'm constantly in awe. I love roaming the building during my lunch break and walking around outside (City Hall is right across the street). I still have a few more months left of my fellowship, but I already know that this is the field I want to work in, it's a dream come true. 

I feel like I really am living my dreams.

I'm headed to NYC today for the long weekend. Can't wait to share details of my trip when I get back on Tuesday.

Keep up with me on Instagram & Twitter!

What's your dream job?

    I Love it when I hear that people love their job. It's something we have to do and I like seeing that there are people out there that are really fulfilled by their work. That's how it should be. My dream job is not what I'm doing now, that's for sure!! Love that last pic!

    So happy to hear you love your job, so many people do not. Have you read Lean-In? I recommend it. I wish I would have read it when I was younger.

    Congrats on loving your job!!! So many of us barely "like" our jobs.
    The pink/orange combo is very pretty on you.

    They say love what you do and you'll never "work" a day in your life. I applaud those able to work their dream jobs; to know that it brings them pleasure and satisfaction while helping others by doing what they do. You are truly fortunate.

    I adore your shift dress. I just recently styled my bestfriend in the exact same one except I layered it with a waterfall cardigan and a skinny belt :D uber chic!

    Hope you've had an enjoyable holiday weekend!

    Congrats girl! I'm so happy for you! And may I add that you look so radiant in your photos, I see the happiness written all over your face :) That is so cool that you work at the State Capitol. It's so funny that a lot of people fail to realize how much work life comes into play with how you feel about your overall life, I guess because you spend so many hours there, but I really do think being happy about what you do is so important. Thanks for solidifying that for me :) Have fun in NY!
