Sarah Afshar
Loving life, liberty, and lipgloss full time, as I am loving music, makeup, and martial arts, just as much. I am a lover of many things. I am somewhat like a Rubik's Cube, as I am colorful, confusing, and addicting. I am a woman with a voice, a vision, and most importantly, a message. I am an entrepreneur, a marketer, a musical enthusiast and musician, a globalist, a food aficionada, a mentor, a science buff, a philanthropist, a gifted socialite, a sports fanatic, a vegetarian, an onlooker, an activist, a martial artist, the exception to the rule, and most importantly, a human being. I write because writing allows me to channel my emotions, as it allows me to moderate my inner nerd. I love the idea of using my voice for the right reasons and purposes. Writing serves as not only a hobby and past time, but a lifestyle that has allowed me to not only express my ideas, thoughts, and opinions, but has also allowed me to clarify and explain them. I highly appreciate being inspired, however; I love to inspire and that is why I write.
