I am a musician by heart. I played the cello in 5th grade and fell in love with band after watching a DCI competition the summer before middle school. Playing my trumpet throughout my middle, high, and college years brought joy, challenge, patience, discipline, lifelong friendships, experiences, and my wonderful husband.
I enriched young minds through music in Arizona and Texas for seven years. During that journey, we adopted our now 12-year-old pup, Stanley.
We enjoy movies, music, and books...lots and lots of books.
