I love being outside and spend time kayaking, hiking, biking, and camping. Playing in the dirt helps me to feel grounded by being present in the moment, breathing, and knowing I am alive today. I am an artistic person and enjoy creating art, crafting, and sewing; especially when it involves my girls. Hula hooping, dancing, and singing are regular things in our house. I also love cos-playing, where I dress up as a faerie and go to community events, so I can put a smile on children’s faces. I’ve always had a passion to help everyone. I love being able to make someone's day, even if it’s just with a smile.
