A typical day in my life includes…
the typical mom duties… making meals, taking care of the kids, etc. I also have a few animals to take care of at home on my little “urban farm”. Feeding and cleaning up after horses, chickens, pigs, and dogs is a daily to-do.
I was born…
and raised in AZ.
My favorite thing about Arizona…
the weather! The sunrises, sunsets, and mountains. I even enjoy the hot summers.
I’m listening to…
mostly country when I have control of the radio or I’m alone. But I really enjoy the music my kids play too. They have great taste!
My family…
I’ve been married for 14 years and have three beautiful girls. My family also lives nearby and I am close to them!
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
my grandma passed away a few years ago and I’d give anything to have one more meal with her.
One thing I cannot live without…
my family!
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a restaurant owner… I guess I’ve just always loved food service!
I’m inspired by…
small business owners. Working so hard every day following their dreams. I admire and respect their grit and drive.
The one person who motivates me is…
my momma!
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
the negativity.
The perfect day would be…
spent with people I love, outdoors in 70-degree weather enjoying good food and good company.
My first job was…
Sonic Drive-In car hop.
My favorite escape…
horseback riding and being up north in the Arizona mountains!
My life…
is busy, often messy, not always predictable… but I’m so grateful for what I have.
I’m currently working on…
myself. Trying to find the perfect balance between work, family and home life.
Always…
keep an open mind and think outside the box!
Never…
give up and say “I can’t”.
Favorite Quote…
“When there’s a will, there’s a way.”
Biggest Dream…
to simply be happy and find that balance where the stress is low. Also, to have time and money to travel and make memories with my family and raise good kids to be awesome adults.
My Pet Peeve(s)…
people being negative and hiding behind a keyboard to complain.
