About me edit

Hi! My 2023 new year's resolution is to do more creative projects for fun. In 2022 I resolved to listen to more classical music; in 2021 to read more books, and in 2020 to get into Women's Basketball. But my 2019 new year's resolution was to edit wikipedia. I also resolved to listen to more jazz and learn some new recipes... Right now I'm interested in graphic design history... Hope you enjoy my edits and posts. www.rosamcelheny.com
