Well I love nature, I love being around wildlife. I have 4 pets, a giberian shepsky dog, (German Shepherd Siberian Husky mix) who's 3, named Apollo. I have an almost two year old bearded dragon named Harley, followed by a 7 month old tree frog named Thumper, and last but not least, a crested gecko named Shamoo. I take care of all of them with the help of my significant other. I also love the ocean and swimming in it, too. I enjoy documentaries because not only are they educational and informative, they are also interesting and can be really fun and enjoyable, too. I love crime scene documentaries the most.

I am also an LAPD Volunteer and have a passion for the department as well as the community. I have always wanted to join the force and hope to do so one day shortly after obtaining my degree in psychology.
