I come from a close-knit family that includes my younger brother and older sister. I have lived in Lincoln, Nebraska my entire life, mainly in the south part of the city. Growing up, I attended a small school, starting at Trinity Lutheran Elementary and finishing my primary education at Lincoln Lutheran, which was located just across the street. During my childhood, I loved spending time outdoors and playing with my neighbors, which helped me develop strong friendships that have lasted to this day. As I got older, I continued to enjoy spending time with friends and creating lasting memories. Some of my fondest memories are from the fun “trouble” I would get into with my friends during high school. Overall, my personal life has been shaped by my family, my upbringing in Lincoln, and the strong relationships I’ve formed throughout my life.

Outside of work and spending time with family and friends, I keep busy with my two dogs. They are a big part of my life and bring me a lot of joy. Whether we’re going on walks around the neighborhood or playing fetch at the park, they always keep me on my toes. Being a dog owner has also taught me about responsibility and the importance of creating a routine, which has helped me in other aspects of my life as well.
