Arianne Segerman’s Summary
Director of Community Development, Freelance Writer/Blogger
I am a writer of passions...losing weight, autism, blogging, parenting, green living, shopping, social media, organic food, natural health, photography, life in the Midwest, being a California ex-pat, escaping the AZ desert, life with all boys... just to name a few.
I am also a social media addict, and love to connect women to companies, to new opportunities and to other smart women. Not a day goes by that I don't come across people looking to connect, to expand their work, or to find more information about mommy blogging, losing weight, autism, green living and more. I love when I can be the bridge for those connections, and work to create new opportunities for myself and others.
