What I am Happiest Doing Outside of Work: Quality time with my partner, dogs, and friends is my favorite way to spend free time. Growing up a West Virginian, I’ve always been an outdoorsy person, so you can typically find me on a hiking trail or swimming in a lake! If I’m not up and moving, I’m usually trying a new restaurant with my partner, looking for local live music shows, or relaxing with some video games.

If you could choose any superpower, what would you choose: Teleportation. No more traffic! Travel fees gone. Can you imagine? Amazing.
