Bio
I was born and raised in Central Oregon. I attended Oregon State University where I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Digital Communication Arts with an emphasis in Media Management. Read more about me and what I'm all about below.
All About Me
I have lived in Central Oregon my entire life, except for the few years I attended college in Corvallis. Although I love my home in Oregon, I do plan on broadening my horizons someday and living in other parts of the country. For now, I've made my home in Oregon, but I have a wondering soul and have no doubt life will take me elsewhere in the future. I believe what's meant for us will always find us and I'm always open to new opportunities and allowing the universe to show me the way.
​
In 2020 I went through a heartbreaking divorce that forced me to reevaluate my life. Although a career has always been an important aspect of my life, after my divorce I started hyper-focusing on where I wanted to go in my career. I had been working as a print production associate and hadn't seen any growth in a few years, so I knew it was time to move on and focus on a new path. I've dabbled in various industries from customer service, retail and food service, to print production and more recently, social media management. My ultimate goal is to be able to work in an environment that allows me to utilize my graphic design skills and media background.
​
Although my career is very important to me, my life outside of the office is even more important. I believe wholeheartedly in finding a healthy work life balance. I am a very family oriented person and spend a lot of time with my family, both blood related and found.
I'm a pretty typical Oregonian in that I love spending time in nature, hiking, camping and kayaking. I also love spending time with those I love most, including my family, boyfriend and friends. I also enjoy painting, reading, and writing. I hope to start doing more painting and writing in the near future, as well as playing my flute more. I also enjoy binging my favorite shows and watching great movies, and even enjoy a video game from time to time. I also love to travel and hope to do more of it in the near future.

You may notice a common subject from my photography section, my golden retriever, Archer. I've had Archer since he was 8 weeks old and love him with all my heart. My dog has a special place in my heart and helped me through some really difficult times. He's one of the best dogs I've had in my lifetime and I hope to be able to give him the best dog life he can have.

I am passionate about veterans affairs, mental and physical health, women's rights and animal wellbeing to name a few.
