I grew up in Andover Kansas, a town right outside of Wichita, Kansas. The best way to describe it is that it’s a small suburb known for being a great place to grow up. Growing up there have been many people who are very influential in my life, but the main one is my mom. I’ve never met someone so selfless and someone who always wants to make people smile. Whether it was creating greeting cards, playing cards, or taking friends out to eat. She taught me that life has its ups and downs but surrounding yourself with great people along the way makes it all worth it.
