Personal:
I like being around my family, going to the beach, fishing, hunting, camping, beading and most anything that allows me to be with my family. We take trips to Lufkin, Texas to visit with our family. We play board games and go to the lake and have fun. I am presently at Ashford University seeking a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration- Project Management and that keeps me busy a couple days a week.
