Born and raised in Kansas City, I am a Royals and Chiefs fan and a self-proclaimed barbecue snob. Growing up, I always thought I would find myself working in the science field but quickly realized in college I needed something with a little more creativity in my life.

Running has been a big part of my life and I have completed several marathons and half marathons and hope to run several more. Additionally, in my free time, I enjoy traveling, baking, playing games, and spending time with my husband and my dog that I spoil and refer to as my “fur daughter.”
