Interests

Outside of work, I find joy in spending time with my family and my fur babies—they’re a big source of comfort and balance in my life. I especially love taking long drives with my husband and our fur babies to explore nature, clear my mind, and recharge. I also enjoy discovering new restaurants and experiencing foods from different cultures, which feels like a meaningful way to stay curious and connected to the world around me.
