I’m very grateful for the life my fiancé and I are building here in the Central Valley of California. We made the decision to move our family from the coast, and we chose this town for its alignment with our family values. I’m a mom to two little girls, ages 2 and 5 (yes, this means there’s never a dull moment) and am engaged to a hardworking partner who always goes the extra mile. 

I was born in Oregon so that’s where my journey began. With my dad’s dedication to his career as a union construction member, we relocated often. Moving around the Pacific Northwest taught me resilience and adaptability, and for that I am truly thankful. My mother taught me how to be fierce and ambitious. I learned the value of having a loving family with a strong work ethic.

Moving to California felt like a leap of faith, but I found a community that mirrors my values of family, hard work, and strong relationships. I’ve formed friendships with families in the area and love I can’t believe how welcoming and real the people of Oakdale are – thank you so much!!!

As a career, I chose to partner with New York Life Insurance, to help protect families and what they work so hard for, but my career is just one part of who I am. I work to balance my professional life with the joys of having a family - cherishing every moment spent coloring, playing outside, or enjoying music together. I believe that the values we instill in our children will shape their futures. The strength of our community is awe-inspiring, reminding me that we’re all in this together.

I’m excited about all the possibilities for my family. I plan to create a legacy of love and resilience for my daughters and connect with others on this journey of life. 

Thank you for letting me share my story—I can’t wait to connect and hear yours!

Cheers to all of us and the ones we love!

Respectfully,
