Additional biographical information
I married my very best friend on October 5th of 2013. We are enjoying married life with our 3 dogs and 1 cat. We welcomed our first child, a daughter, in July of 2016. Our family loves to travel and are slowly making our way through all of the continents and countries. Summer 2018 will bring us to a handful of new countries- Iceland, Switzerland, Germany, and Denmark! I love being able to tell my students about these experiences in hopes that they can aspire to explore the world we live in someday.
