Did You Know?

Did you know that I also write on Medium.com? I have been a writer there since 2022. My address page can be found at: https://carollabuzzetta.medium.com/ Medium is a membership platform, but I can share with a friend link, too.

Formal Education

My background is varied. I earned a BSN from Alfred University in New York, a Master's in Child Health from SUNY Buffalo, and another Master's from UW- Steven's Point in Natural Resources, with an emphasis on Environmental Education.

What do I write about?

I write about life. You will find my articles focus on travel, education, community involvement, gardening, and sometimes parenting, although those days are mostly behind me now. I value honesty and transparency, as well as education, service, & creativity.
