I am a dancer. I've danced my entire life, and I've been at In His Steps dance studio for about 8 years now. I've done ballet, modern, pointe, tap, pom, hip hop, jazz, and lots of specialized courses throughout my dance career. Some of my best friends have been made through my dance studio and it's been the highlight of my week for my entire life.
I am a sister. I have three siblings: my older brother Mitch, my older sister Amanda, and my younger sister Katrina. They are my best friends and bring out the best in me. Some of my favorite memories of my life have been with my siblings. A lot of the laughter and support in my life comes from them.
I'm an aspiring pilot. I've loved aviation my entire life and have based my future off my goal of being a commercial airline pilot. I'm currently interning with WMU's College of Aviation and am learning that I love aviation even more than I thought I did before this experience. Next year, I'll be joining WMU's students to study Flight Science at the W.K. Kellogg Regional Airport.
I am a pet owner. I have two dogs, Ruby and Luke, and a cat, Rocky. I've owned Ruby and Rocky since I came to Michigan when I was 4 years old. We also have two fish, and some chickens. Recently, a family of black cats have taken refuge in our backyard. I don't consider them my animals, but I'm glad that they decided to stick around because they are very adorable.
I am a traveler. My favorite thing to do with my family is to go on vacations. We go on a ridiculous amount of vacations. Every week in the summer we go to a different location in Michigan to camp. Some of the highlights have been Monticello, Virginia; Nashville, Tennessee; Anna Maria Island, Florida; Atlanta, Georgia; Boyne Mountain, Michigan; and Universal Studios in Florida.
I am a lover of music. Live shows are what I live for. Some of my favorite musical artists that I've seen are Mumford & Sons, Panic! at the Disco, the 1975, Fall Out Boy, Halsey, Paramore, and so many more. I try to see as many artists as possible. I'm also a fan of musical theater! Some of my favorite shows have been Hamilton, Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, the Lion King, Hairspray, the list goes on and on. If I could spend all my time seeing live musical shows, I would be a happier woman.
