About

I’m a midwestern girl who joined the Air Force in 2002 and married a military guy in 2003. I got out of the military in 2004 to go to school, while my husband has remained active duty. We have been blessed to travel the world for work and fun.

My husband, Sean, and I have two boys: a biological son named Findlay who is powered by an exceptionally loud monster truck engine, and the sweetest special-needs son you could ever meet, Coen, whom we adopted from China. Both boys were born in 2013 and are 32 days apart.
