On a personal note

Outside of work, I spend most of time laughing and playing with my three young kids. I love creating new adventures to share with them. I’m constantly planning either a new art project to do with them (that will probably end up with paint and glitter all over) or looking into a hike that I think they just might enjoy (if I pack enough M&Ms). During the rare moments where I find I have some time to myself, I like to go for a run, do some yoga, or attempt a watercolor.
