My Other Brush with Greatness-Patricia Mayo

Oh You're Definitely Gonna Have Fun Today!

Ladies and gentlemen I'm pleased to bring you the bright sparkling mind of Patricia Mayo. I came across her in one of those writers groups on...well it wasn't Google...but anyway.

She's not a Content Producer here on AC YET. But I'd bet as recently as today you've been on a webpage that was at least indirectly influenced by her.

This young lady revives my spirit and She'll likely do the same for you.

Now I just gotta figure out this formatting thing...until then; Patricia Mayo:

DP: Who are you. We all want to know about you. Please tell us who you are. (by that tell me a little about yourself including personal stats like age, place of birth, etc...)

Well, I'm Patricia Mayo (the original! I had my name well before Patty Mayonnaise debuted on Doug), and I've managed to survive a whole whopping 23 years. Some people are still surprised about how young I am, but given the huge number of super young entrepreneurs today, I don't see why.

I was born and raised in Florida, almost entirely in Broward County - the city most would be familiar with is Ft. Lauderdale. Don't get me wrong, I love Cubans - but you can cut off Florida at Lake Okeechobee, kick it south, and everyone would make it back home eventually (hah!).

Honestly I'm extremely thankful I was raised in such a diverse environment. Thanks to it, I speak Spanish fairly well, and bits and pieces of 7 other languages. That knowledge has really come in handy everywhere I've gone, since I can't resist meeting new people from faraway lands.

Since then I lived in New Hampshire for 6 years, then got it in my head I needed a cheaper cost of living so I could support myself while building up my business. So I lived in Connecticut for a little over a month, then North Carolina for two weeks, and I've been in South Carolina for the last 6 months.

Being frugal certainly has it's perks - otherwise, all that moving would have been much worse than it was!

DP: What business are you in and what initially drew you to that business?
