Personal Interests
I am a mom to a wonderfully wild little girl who is funny, smart and very independent. I am a wife to an ambitious and caring husband. We are expecting a baby boy at the end of the year. I enjoy being with my family and going on adventures or exploring Colorado with them. I also enjoy snowboarding, traveling, being with my friends and family, and seeing live music at all of the fabulous venues that Colorado has to offer.
