What do you most like to do to unwind?

I love being in nature, so camping, hiking, being by a river or body of water, anything that has to do with the outdoors, count me in. 

What has been your favorite work or personal project so far?

I am always striving for farm life so have tried to make my residential backyard into a mini farm (city permitting). I now have a garden, six chickens and a goldendoodle named Gus. I am currently advocating to the city to allow miniature backyard goats!

Where is the best place you’ve traveled to and why?

New Zealand or Costa Rica have been my favorite! I loved the people, culture and the natural, diverse beauty. Not to mention I got to feel like I was in Lord of the Rings for two weeks. 

What’s something most people don’t know about you?  

I was adopted when I was an infant.

Which TV show do you never miss?

My most watched TV show is Star Trek: The Next Generation. I have also on accident run into two of the main characters. I hope to accidentally run into a few more of them in my lifetime.
