About Me
I have traveled extensively and enjoyed exploring new places off the beaten track. I currently foster pups for A Forever Home and was recently on Good Morning Washington DC on 5 Aug 2025 advertising the rescue. I actively donate to several charities locally and through my church, including food drives, clothing drives, and school snack bags for three elementary schools in Manassas. I have 4 dogs with one in training to be a therapy dog and I have 2 more classes to complete for my MS in Forensic Psychology. I recently attended the 6 week class in Community Police work to support my police force, learn what they do and spread the word. I have a horse, a bunny, 2 guinea pigs, 2 birds and 3 cats so one may consider I’m in the starting stages of Noah’s Ark!
