Tell us about your family.

I was born and raised in Citrus County. My parents are local pastors, and I've been married to my husband since 2025.

What were you like as a child?

I was a very talkative child, but I also liked to read. If I had a C in class, I was grounded from watching TV and was only allowed to read. Because of that, I now love to read!

What are your interests outside of work?

Outside of work, I am very involved in my church as a youth leader and worship director. Other than that, I love going on the boat, baking, and reading a good book.

Tell us a favorite Scripture verse.

Proverbs 4:23 - "Be careful what you think because your thoughts run your life." (New Century Version)
