I was born in Missoula, MT and grew up on a cattle ranch in Southwestern Montana not far from Missoula. I always lived close to family and my best friends were my brothers, Jonah and Caleb. I always enjoyed caring for my animals, riding horses, playing basketball, and creating art. I moved to Utah in 2016 for my Freshman year at Utah State University.
I served a mission in Phoenix, AZ, and upon returning in 2019, I transferred to BYU against my will (it was the will of the Lord). While preparing to apply to the EXDM program in the Marriott School, I work part-time. Luckily, I found a job that I am in love with and that keeps me in Utah Valley.
In addition to being a full-time student, I work for Bridle Up Hope a non-profit organization in Alpine, UT, that strives to "...inspire hope, confidence, and resilience in women through equestrian training," as a horseback riding instructor. My work offers me an opportunity for fulfillment, growth, and purpose.
