A little bit about me

Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Barri and I appreciate you stopping by to get to learn the littliest bit about me: I am now a resident of Charleston, just as you are. Having lived outside of Philadelphia from my sophmore year of high school until 2 days ago I am so overjoyed to be back on the water. Having grown up in Hollywood, Florida until my parents up and moved up North because my parents did that for me, not my choice, this is definately where I am meant to be. The life that I have afforded for myself has been full and wonderful, as has the people that I surround myself with. The positivity that I exude has been said to be infectious and I look forward to sharing with you. My previous Estate and Employer have parted ways so that I can move here to be closer to warmer weather. As I have just arrived 2 days ago and settling in I have enjoyed my conversations that this site has already afforded me, however, this position is not something that I or you take lightly. Quite the opposite. This role for both of us is one that is built on the fundamentals of trust, honesty and connection.
Hoping to connect with you in more ways than one. If you have liked what you have read thus far, be in touch. Hoping your day or night is wonderful and filled with at least 2 smiles. One for you and one for me.
Until then,
Barri
