Dawn Hemphill

Born in Kittery, ME, I'm the oldest child of a military couple. My family traveled around the world as they raised me and retired (Mom and Dad, of course) in Utah. This created the gypsy spirit in me. I have a wandering lust that's continued throughout my lifetime. I was in the U.S. Army then the U.S. Navy as soon as I possibly could join. After the military, I worked as a civil servant for the IRS then went on to try out several different career paths such as trucking, salesman, restaurant work plus more. I finally, made my career as a mortgage broker. After twenty years brokering mortgages, the wandering spirit reared up and I had to make a move. I made a move allright and went back to drug addiction. Wrong move but, a required one. I've gained some insight into a world I know I don't want to be a part of but, the world exists. I've decided "addict" isn't the profession I'll choose for this career term and have moved on but, still career shopping. I gained valuable experience with mystery shopping, having to depict myself in whatever scenario the client requests. I also do some acting when I demo products in stores and ask you to come over and have a sample, (Cheesy Smile). I've been writing my book, on small post-it-notes, for the past seven years, if not more. I'm tired of collecting all those little pieces of paper and attempting to put them in order. So.....It's time to find my Nikes.
