About Aurora

My father named me after Sleeping Beauty. The princess theme stuck. Unfortunately, the only castle I can claim is the one in Disneyland. These are the musings of a princess without minions, knights or fairy tales. I have to do my own bidding. The views in this blog are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer or clients.
