What Makes Me Happy!

I thrive in the great outdoors, whether it's hiking, paddle boarding, or wake surfing. I love playing and watching sports and am actively involved in a women's ultimate frisbee league and a women's volleyball team. If it's active and challenging, I'm all in! Live music events and patio listening sessions are my jam. Spending time with family and friends brings my heart happiness. Whether I'm cheering on my little's at their games or gathering with friends for Friendsgiving, I'm always surrounded by love and laughter.
