Personal Quote/Statement:
I have many loves in this world; family, outdoors, therapy, and connecting with people. I enjoy reading, snowboarding, gardening, game nights with friends, and time outside with my husband and two children. As I’ve grown over the years, I feel that life’s hardships and trials can be both temporary and persistent; and that everyone deserves the chance to be heard and understood.
