When Ariana isn't writing, she is employed as a part time data technician and receptionist at a community action agency that assists low income families with several government and state funded programs. She has been there almost 10 years.

Ariana also lives with her husband and daughter where she resides in the Midwestern part of the United States. Along with her little family, they also have Mr. Kitty, a few feathered friends and a night-time sugar glider: Miles. 

Ariana designs her own jewelry Sentimental Jewelry Creations , enjoys reading books especially by Nicholas Sparks, riding her bike and taking walks with her friends and family. She also does other artwork such as cartoons, Zentangle and about anything else that can inspire her to draw.  

Recently, Ariana's latest project was illustrating a children's book titled: "Bullying Ben." You can purchase it at Amazon. It is a fictional story about Benjamin Franklin and how he was bullied by his brother and classmates. The book also shares true facts about Benjamin Franklin and inspires children that they can overcome the hurt of bullying.
