I’m a people-watcher. I enjoy watching people. Why?
Because people are fascinating!
Each person has his or her own walk, talk, and quirky body language;
His or her own attitude, facial expression, and smell (yes, I smell faces when I kiss them);
His or her own aura and spirit.
And each person has a story no one else can tell.

I’m also a culture-lover. I appreciate various cultures. Why?
Because cultures are fascinating!
From neighborhood to neighborhood, a culture can change.
From city to city, state to state, country to country.
From workplace to workplace, industry to industry, income to income, cultures change.
And each generation has a story no one else can tell.

I’m an animal-lover. Maybe you are, too, and you already know the Why.
Because they’re absolutely fascinating!
They steal our hearts away by everything they do and everything they say.
Each of them has a story that only each of them can tell.

A nature-lover am I. Lover of all that is green, colorful, wet, and wild. Why?
Because it’s God’s creation, and leaves me in jaw-dropping awe day after day;
Year after year, time after time.
If the land, waters, and skies could talk, they would surely tell a story like none other.

A silence-lover. I appreciate the quiet. Why?
Because that’s when I can hear God.
And His is the greatest story ever told.

Shawn Krumm

Talk with Shawn and the word versatile might come to mind. She’s been a copywriter and radio news reporter; a personal trust administrator and recruiter in banking; a Federal Government employee and voice-over artist; a managing editor and marketing manager in publishing. Shawn is president of her church council, a member of the Southern Ohio Synod Council in Columbus working with the Bishop, and serves in other ministries and areas of the ELCA. For kicks, she likes to sing, act, runway model, and direct weddings since she’s a certified wedding director. Above all, Shawn loves people and finds them “fascinating” as Spock would say. West Chester, Ohio, is home for Shawn, her Sci-Fi buddy and husband Michael, and their furry feline Licorice, aka Fang, Precious Baby, and Hungry?.
