I was born and raised in the USA, more specifically Huntsville, AL. I’m accustomed to Suburbia, English as a language with an occasional country accent, engineering/military based industries, at least 2 Protestant churches on every street, and of course Football being the most popular sport in the country.

When it comes to my more individual experiences, I’d say some of the biggest contributors to my view would be making God the leader of my life at 9 y/o and having grown up with His support and great love ever since, developing alopecia at 15 y/o,  having divorced parents, playing competitive soccer since 9 y/o, and living in Atlanta, GA while I attended massage school last year.

I have always been active with soccer and I enjoy any other outdoor activity, so I'm drawn to friends who also have those interests. I can talk with people in health professions much easier than I could before massage therapy school. I’ve developed a growing interest in foreign languages and cultures, so I chose to pursue some of those interests in college. I've been dating my boyfriend, Jacob, who is now a 2 LT in the Army for 3 years, and I'm currently working as a massage therapist while taking classes at UAB.

These few experiences have impacted the way I perceive my world.
