I have always loved sports and physical activity. I grew up playing basketball, football and baseball from a young age. That passion has carried to my adult life. After my military career, I joined The Alaska Club team and received my Bachelor's of Science in Physical Education.

I also work with PLAAY (Positive Leadership for Active Alaska Youth) to promote physical activity and healthy choices for kids to carry with them throughout their lives.
