I grew up in Edmond, Oklahoma and went to Deer Creek. While the Deer Creek area has grown a ton since I went to school there, it used to be a small school district…the kind where you know everyone in your class and grew up going to school with them. Growing up, I was most influenced by my parents. They were both hard workers and still are. I attribute a lot of my success to the work ethic they instilled in me. They also influenced me to become extremely independent which I’m super thankful for today. Starting my junior year of high school through the summer after I graduated college, I ran a snow cone stand every summer which helped me graduate from college with no student loans.
I graduated from Oklahoma State University in 2013 (Go Pokes!) with a degree in Marketing and minor in Management.
