A: I absolutely adore the mountains. One of my goals is to visit every mountain range in North America. I could spend forever in the mountains. I spend the majority of my time with my husky, Nyra Rose, who is spoiled rotten. If I can't bring her, I pretty much don't do it.

A: I love reading. I love listening to music, I'm a BARB for life. I love hiking, whether alone, with friends, or with my siberian husky. I am a former Color & Winter Guard performer and Speech & Debate competitor. Hammock camping is also one of my very favorite things.

A: I enjoy how inquisitive I am and my level of initiative. My inquisitiveness means I will forever be learning new information and things. My initiative means I will forever be a "go getter" and will accomplish whatever I set my mind to.

A: I could not live without my fur baby, Nyra Rose, without my chosen family, without my sense of humor, without music and without love.

A: I am 100% authentically me. I mean what I say and I say what I mean. I've never been afraid to speak up and say what is on my mind, even if everyone else is thinking or feeling the exact opposite. I think individuality and authenticity are some of the most important things for people to maintain.
