About Me

I love tween girls and their unjaded, I-can-do-anything attitude that can disappear the second pimples pop up on their noses. I've been a Secretary at Honeywell (remember them?), Treasurer of a Political Action Committee (I was way too young to take full advantage of all the fun I could have had with that one) and VP of Sales at USA TODAY. I loved all my careers, but the best one is the one I discovered in the second half of my life... Founder of AK Tweens and AllyKatzz.com, the safe social networking site for tween girls... and being crowned "Tween Girl Expert" because I get to be forever "12" minus the pimples.
