I am a Florida native and high school graduate of Lincoln Park Academy,
in Ft. Pierce, FL. My first yearbook experience was as co-editor of my fifth grade
yearbook at Lawnwood Elementary School. I earned my B.A. from
Florida Southern College in Lakeland, FL where I had the honor of playing for the
Lady Mocs Soccer Team and managing and editing our FSC literary and arts
journal, Cantilevers. After college, I lived and worked in Gainesville, FL
for 4 years and was officially converted as a proud member of the Gator Nation.
When I am not working, I am reading, running, or hiking somewhere.
While I am in FL, I am happiest jogging or biking at San Felasco or
Circle B Reserve, walking the beautiful Treasure Coast beaches or snapping
a lucky photo of wildlife at Paynes Prairie. When I am not in FL, I am happily
exploring a mountain somewhere west of the Mississippi. I currently live in
Polk County with my very handsome dog, Ruger, and my trouble-making cat,
Lucy.
