I grew up in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, which is a little bit south of Denver. Luckily, I was raised in a family of ski bums, so we spent a lot of time on the slopes in the winter. Not only that, but I was involved in competitive soccer my whole life which is part of the reason I’m an extremely competitive person. I got to travel all over the country for soccer tournaments and loved every experience that came with that. I am very proud to be a Colorado native!
