Who Am I ?

Fun Facts About Me

  •  First and foremost, I am the wife to a wonderful and supportive man and a self- proclaimed crazy dog mom. My baby is 90 pounds of fluff and drool and energy, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

  • I am also a former elementary school teacher, having spent the last six years teaching third and fourth grade in urban settings. This past year, I was a substitute in the Cleveland and Medina areas, until COVID hit and sent that right out the window. 
  •  I was a COVID bride. My wedding was scheduled for July of 2020, but when things started looking bad, we had a small ceremony with only immediate family (and not all of them could attend). It was beautiful and special, but I am looking forward to wearing my dress and celebrating again when things are safer. 

On a Lighter Note

  • I love to be active and exercise. Volleyball is by far my favorite sport, and I used to love to run. Several years ago I even completed a half marathon. Currently my passion is weight lifting, and you’ll find my husband and I at the gym 5 or 6 days a week pumping iron.
  • I love to travel! Learning about other countries and cultures, seeing the beauty presented all across our own country, and making memories with those I care about is refreshing to my soul.
  •  On a related, but contradictory note, I absolutely HATE driving – so the fact that I regularly put 25,000 miles on my car in a year is not my favorite habit.
  • I may be the world’s only bandwagon Cleveland Brown’s fan. When I moved here, I loved the city and adopted the team by extension. Then I decided to spend the rest of my life with a lifelong Browns sufferer, so I guess I’m stuck with them now. Luckily, they’re getting a little less frustrating to watch. 
  • I *might* have a slight addiction to Dr. Pepper. While I am a coffee drinker to get my daily caffeine fix, Dr. Pepper is always my go-to guilty pleasure.
