She is a wife to her wonderful husband for over 10 years, and they have two energetic boys, Charlie and Amos, who keep them busy. They are in the process of moving, and her boys will attend ACA. She likes to travel to new places, go camping, and enjoys being outside. She enjoys all things Taylor Swift, pickleball, watching sports (Go Tigers!) and being active.
