Personal

I love finding ways to shake up daily routines by taking part in things that don’t happen every day. I’ve discovered a love for travel over the years, and I try to make it a goal to travel somewhere new every year. You can also find me trying new restaurants, going to concerts, reading new books (lots of books!), or bingeing a new show on Netflix. I love experiencing all that the world has to offer.

I love being a part of the amazing atmosphere here at Foster Group. To find a place filled with fun, caring people who love what they do and who they do it for is rare and something to be cherished. As Jane Austen put it in Sense and Sensibility (because I majored in English literature I must quote Jane Austen at least once), “It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.” I look forward to all that we will do in the time to come.

Education
