She has an amazing son who is a rising sophomore at Union Academy and a crazy boxer pup named Oakley. She loves the beach and travelling around the world and can often be seen on many adventures with her son. Her other hobbies include having a dance party while cleaning her house, reading, playing tennis (not very well), kickboxing, doing crafts, and just being outdoors. Being a mommy, an educator, and the best person she can be is what she feels she was put on this Earth to do. -
