I am a proud mom of three amazing kids, a devoted wife, and someone who is incredibly close with my family. Family has always been the center of my life and has and continues to shape who I am. As a former teacher, I loved helping others learn and grow, and I try to carry that into everything I do. I also spent many years as a figure skater when I was a kid, where I developed a love for the arts and movement. Now I enjoy staying active, whether it’s taking long walks outside, traveling to new places, or spending time at the lake with family and friends.

I want to be a “star” because I am ready to step outside of my comfort zone and do something completely new and life changing. Although I was never a dancer myself, I always loved watching my sisters shine during their dance recitals. Combined with my background in figure skating, those experiences sparked a lifelong love for the arts. This is an opportunity to reconnect to the arts, challenge myself, and to show my children it’s never too late to dream big. I want to prove to them that continuing to learn and grow, taking chances, embracing new experiences and believing in yourself can all lead to incredible opportunities.

I feel so lucky and truly excited to have this chance to be part of something so special. I can’t wait to soak it all in :)
