Where I’m From?
North Plains, Oregon (NP member for life!)

About Me?
I grew up on a farm, which instilled in me a strong work ethic and sincere dedication to my community. I enjoy getting to know people’s stories and learning how others live a life different than mine. I’m also passionate about fitness. It’s truly important to me, and I’ve learned to push myself in the gym with the help of my fantastic trainer.

My true passion is boating. I own a 37-foot Maxum SCR 3700 named “Slacker,” moored in the Fremont area close to the Puget Sound. Traveling on the water is my real joy. It allows me to be free, enjoy the sea life, and provides some of the best views. This year, I was able to see a turtle swimming next to my boat. 

Why I Love Portland?
I call Portland the city with a small-town feeling. My favorite activities are hiking Forest Park, crabbing at Kelly’s Brighton Marina, and fishing from the jetty at Barview. I also love the mild climate and how dedicated people are to interacting with the environment.
