What was your first job? How did you get it or learn about it?

My first job was as an Administrative Assistant with James-River Corporation. It was part of a work-study program through my high school.  I was able to learn valuable skills working in a professional environment while earning high school credits.  This position led to other opportunities post-high school and began my professional career.

What do you like most about living in Southwest Washington?

I was born and raised in Southwest Washington and absolutely love this area and all it has to offer. I love the seasons (especially fall when the leaves change colors).  I love the proximity to ocean beaches, rivers, lakes, mountains, and forest.  In my very-biased opinion, there is no better place to live.

What do you like to do for fun or what hobbies do you have?

I love to be outdoors. I enjoy running (or maybe it’s called jogging at my pace), hiking, riding bikes, camping, paddle boarding or just sitting on my back patio listening to the bird’s chirp.  I also enjoy Excel to the extent I would consider it a hobby.
