Certifications & Associations
On a personal note…
When I’m not working, you’ll find me adventuring with my husband and our two lively Labradors. Whether we’re hiking in the mountains, paddling on the lake, or off-roading in our Jeep, we thrive in the great outdoors.
I’m an avid photographer and mixed media artist with a love for upcycling. The Wabi-Sabi philosophy and the art of Kintsugi inspire my creativity, celebrating the beauty in imperfection and the stories behind each piece.
Restoring our home has been a labor of love, blending creativity and craftsmanship to bring our vision to life. We also find joy in the hunt for unique treasures at garage sales and flea markets to furnish and decorate it. This passion for restoration extends beyond our home—on mission trips, we’ve had the privilege of helping others rebuild and restore their homes after natural disasters, an experience that’s both humbling and rewarding.

My most cherished memories are spent outdoors—by the fire, on the water, or wandering new trails—where I feel most connected and alive.
