Welcome to Inspired Graphics Media's izania.com blog. We will feature articles on marketing, technology and small business tips. We look forward to helping you grow your business.

I was inspired to write the blog after starting an MBA program at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business in 2005.  I was learning so much about business, and I wanted to find a way to share that knowledge with the African-American small business community.  I've always enjoyed writing and technology, so a blog was the way to go.

Spontaneous Responses
I have reached a stage in my life where I don't have the luxury of "later."  The older I get, the more urgent my life becomes.  Not urgent in the sense that I am rushing around out of control.  But urgent in the sense that I can see the need for action in response to the world surrounding me.  I feel the necessity to speak my mind, and take action where I can make a difference.  This blog is a real-time account of my spontaneous responses to life in the 21st century.

I call myself a JOURNALIST UNLEASHED! After spending more than 25 years in the radio and television news business being "objective", I can now say what I really think and feel about what's going on in the world. I also describe myself as a “Baby Boomer Diva on the Move” who has a passion for God and family.
