Outside the Office
I like to take advantage of the Florida sunshine! I love to fish and hang out at the beach. I also enjoy reading, walking for exercise, traveling and spending time with family, especially my two “out of the nest” children.
Fun Fact
I grew up in a military family with five siblings and we moved around a lot, which I have come to appreciate as an adult.
