About Me:
I’m active, laid-back, and value a drama-free home environment. I take care of the lawn maintenance. Bills are calculated then posted on fridge to support a unified, supportive home environment.
I love:
Decorating for holidays
Running (training for a 2026 marathon)
Yoga, paddleboarding, and plant-growing
Austin FC games
My Beagle, and her two rescued kitty best friends that mainly like to be outside
I previously worked as a school counselor and am working toward a second Master’s degree to enter the medical field in 2026. I work part-time and am studying or working out otherwise.
