I love working out. I love spending all of my time with my little baby.

I've always been pretty active since I was a kid. In high school I played soccer, I participated in cross country. I ran the 500m, 800m and the half mile. I used to be a power lifter. I was also on the dance team. I multitasked several things and I've always liked to stay active. I love the feeling of just feeling healthy inside and out. That feeling of accomplishment to make myself feel good. To feel strong. My parents used to tell me I needed to find a different hobby than just working out. But it's what I've always loved to do and had my interest. Just staying active and busy.

I became a mother on November 14th, 2022. To such a beautiful baby girl. I've currently been a stay at home mom since then. Very out of the normal for me considering I've honestly always worked since I was sixteen years old. My daughter takes up most of my time and she has my full attention. My every day life is revolved around her. I enjoy the most just spending time with her and seeing her smile. She's my best friend. I didn't have the greatest child hood, and experiences. But I put a lot of time and effort into hers to help set the best foundation for her to have one along with many great memories too be able to look back on.
