I was raised in gorgeous Santa Cruz, California by a family of teachers. I love spending time with my family in the great outdoors. I have recently been raising chickens and cats, and have found so much joy in spending time with my beautiful pets. I love Young Adult Literature more than any other genre and find my creative spirit through the Fine Arts. Science continuously wows me and Math is cool now that I'm an adult. Lastly, I am very passionate about Theater and love expressing myself in BIG ways! 

I love my creative and fun family. My daughter is wildly artistic and is especially kind to others. My son loves adventure and has a special place in his heart for all creatures. My husband is going on his 19th year of teaching high school and has quite the green thumb and a beautiful garden. We love our Cam Heights neighborhood, community, and friends!
