Best of 2015

2015 has come to a close so it’s time for an annual review of my contest wins….drum roll please…. I won 102 contests, worth over $15,000 in value, last year! This brings my total to close to $100,000 since I first started in 2010! As 2016 begins, I thought I would reflect upon my most…
