About me: “I wear many hats. I’m a wife, mother, daughter, grandmother, aunt, friend, and therapist. In my spare time, I enjoy fishing, hunting, and other outdoor activities. I’m always willing to be compassionate, open-minded, and a good listener.”

Quote: “I acknowledge there will be hard moments, but I acknowledge we are capable of doing hard things.”
