I don't know how else to put it. My family is everything to me.  I have been so lucky to have parents that have helped me to travel all over the United States, Canada, & even Ireland to try and inspire me to explore and try new things.  They support my soccer and my school so that I can follow my dreams to become a veterinarian. My little brother Mason is like most little brothers but at the same time he's actually really cool. 

​

One of my favorite traditions is our annual trip to Georgia where we rent a lake house in the summer and I get to see all of my aunts, uncles, and cousins for a whole week!  

​

We don't usually get much time together with our busy schedules but family dinners, weekends, and getaways are one of my most favorite pastimes.

​

Dad is a Lieutenant with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.  It hasn't always been easy. I know how dangerous his job can be and his schedule has been pretty cray sometimes. He always tells me how hard they train and he usually figures out how to be there for the important stuff. He is also a Lieutenant in the US Navy Reserves and has a Master of Science from Florida State University in Criminology. 

​

Mom is a Registered Nurse and has worked for Baptist Hospital for a long time.  She is now a nurse manager in the hospital and works in the Informatics field.  She also holds a Master of Science in Nursing from Jacksonville University.

​

You might get an idea where I get my work ethic and desire to try and somehow make a difference with my life. I am very proud of both of my parents and the example they have set for me and my brother.
