Activities and Honors

As a bit of a side hustle I work as an Event Coordinator with flare. I have normally taken on this role at the various companies that I have worked at but have also worked on weddings, corporate functions, birthdays etc. I have been the creative coordinator for a children's camp for over 20 years but have finally hung up my hat when Covid hit. I love all things theater and have tossed my hat into the local company to assist with sets and back of stage. I have been a dance mom, soccer mom, baseball mom and coach. I was honored to be able to fund raise enough money for our local hospital to obtain a pediatric Oximeter when a family member lost his life due to improper readings.

I am extremely passionate and not afraid to take on any task.
