Hello + welcome! I’m Colleen. The face behind Inspired to Share. I’m a blogger and aspiring designer with big dreams and humble beginnings. My background is in business but creativity is my passion. Inspired to Share is all about living a simple, styled life with an appreciation for design and the details. I believe homemade is better than store-bought and life is too short to not follow your dreams. Most of all, I’m inspired to share, whether it’s snippets from my creative life, design and lifestyle inspiration, or healthy vegetarian recipes. After traveling to Africa and Europe, I have a chronic sense of wanderlust, but I call the Midwest home. I currently live with my sweet and nerdy husband in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We live on the top floor of a quaint little duplex where we drink tea, hide from winter, listen to music, and dream of getting a puppy. :)

On a more personal note, here’s our engagement video and wedding (featured in Style Me Pretty, Brides Magazine, the Inspired Bride, & Project Wedding).

I also have a few series on my blog:
>>> DREAM JOB
>>> Granola Files
>>> Down to Business & Words to Inspire (from contributor Molly Jacques)
>>> Style Posts
>>> Music to Motivate (from contributor Kelly Ann Mount)
