I’m from Flower Mound, Texas which is a suburb of Dallas. Over the years, it’s changed quite a bit from a small town to what feels like a big city now. My parents still live in the same house that I grew up in, so I always enjoy going back to visit and seeing what’s new around the corner! Growing up, I would say I was most influenced by my parents. They taught me what it’s like to be hard-working, dedicated and have integrity. I was also an only child growing up, so I’d like to think that played a role in me becoming very independent from a young age.
After graduating high school, I attended the University of Arkansas for 1 year before I decided to transfer to the University of Oklahoma (Boomer!). While Fayetteville was beautiful and I met a lot of great people, it was a little too far from home and I needed a change. Looking back, that’s easily one of the best decisions I’ve made so far in my life – It led me to meet my future husband and decide to call Oklahoma home!
