Welcome!

As a freelance feature writer, I love being in touch with the events that go on in my community. I’ve started this blog as a way to inform and keep other’s informed of Upper Marlboro events, services and organizations.

My passion and stake in this is that I get to learn more about the town I’ve lived in for more than 7 years now, as well as contribute something useful to my community using my skills.

If you would like to contact me about blogging your event, service or even a special “Upper Marlborian” that brightens your day, please let me know on the About page.

Thanks!
