Jocelyn Fredrics
Jocelyn Fredrics Powning is a stay at home mom of 3 kids. Her teenage son, preteen daughter and son in 1st grade ensure that her life is always chaotic, never boring. Her background in design and media has morphed into a variety of disciplines ranging from event planning to home design...as well as many posters for the school PTA.
Jocelyn also has a family full of food and seaonsal allergies, which is a daily challenge, but also always an opportunity for innovation.
An only child raised by a retired home ec teacher in a NJ suburb of Philadelphia, her surgeon father was killed in a car accident when she was 3. In 2009 she was found on Facebook by 6 unknown half-sisters. Thanks Dad! This revelation has been both incredible and happily life altering. Those new relationships continue to unfold.
With a family of 5 that loves to travel, play sports (most of them extremely expensive and time consuming) and entertains very often, Jocelyn has decided to begin this adventure of online publishing in her not-so-free time.
