Born and raised in Michigan, I have always loved being outside. The youngest in a family of 6, we were always active and on the go. This pushed me to be involved in a variety of activities from a very young age. Sports, hiking, camps, skiing (water and snow), arts and crafts, music (cello, piano, and flute), reading and traveling. As an adult, my interests have really grown in photography, travel, and scuba diving. Travel has played a huge role in my life. Growing up, my family managed to visit all but two of the contiguous United States. After that, I traveled to Canada, Mexico, England, France, Spain, Costa Rica, and most recently Australia. I am extremely outgoing and love new adventures! For more information, please see my Resume.
