I was born in 1977 in Pennsylvania. I have one brother and no sisters. After excelling in several sports (field hockey, diving and softball) throughout my youth, I graduated from high school in Delaware. I left the east coast in June of 1995 to go through Bootcamp and attend the US Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, CO. After leaving the AF Academy, I have lived all over the country. My daughter was born in South Dakota and my son back east in Virginia. I have also lived in Texas. Change and exciting experiences (along with my family, of course!)are the spice of my life! Did I mention I also skydive?? :)
