Sales & Account Management FAVORITE THING ABOUT SERVING ALPHA GAM
I love that my circle of sisterhood continues to grow every year. Being a part of VST allows me to work with Alpha Gams from all over the US and Canada. Alpha Gam is so much more than four years of college! INSPIRED BY
My children, David (13) and Eva (11). They are both in a magnet school program for marine science here in Ft. Lauderdale and are doing well—even through the pandemic. David loves baseball and Eva loves art. I can't wait to see what they accomplish in high school, college and beyond. I would love it if they decided to join a Greekletter organization. CURRENTLY LISTENING TO
Spotify is my favorite—I love my Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers station. I also love listening to motivational videos about perseverance, goals and gratitude. My mom and I send each other links to great YouTube videos to listen to. LATEST BINGE WATCH
Nothing at the moment. I am still waiting for "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel," "Cobra Kai" and "Stranger Things" to return with new seasons!
CURRENT OBSESSION
I follow the ® Reluctant Entertainer on Pinterest and l love making all kinds of boards for my family. Charcuterie, breakfast, desserts— even movie night snacks and candy. ON HER DAY OFF
We spend a lot of time with our baseball family at tournaments. I also love to journal, paint and cook. If I get up early enough on the weekend, I love to drive down to the beach—which is about 10 minutes from my house—to watch the sunrise. DREAM JOB
Published author or motivational speaker.
