Community participation

Giving back is incredibly important to me. As a team, we enjoy participating in A Brush with Kindness to help restore the exteriors of homes in the community. We also spend time with Feed My Starving Children each year in doing meal prep. I also find joy in volunteering at my children's schools or community programs. It truly "takes a village"!

Interests

When I think of what inspires me, it's my family. My husband, Andy, and I have been blessed with a son, Bennett (10), and daughter, Sienna (8). They keep us incredibly busy with their hockey & dance schedules but we love when we can escape our daily routines to go boating, fishing, golfing or traveling as a family. Our yellow lab, Gwen, tends to tag along too!
