What do you do for fun in your spare time? I enjoy spending time with my family. We love going on walks. My husband loves to get me out to watch football and basketball games and try fun new restaurants. I enjoy reading and cooking!
​
Tell us about your family. I am married to my husband, David who is a teacher at Fountain Central. We have 3 children: Will, Claire and Ainsley, 2 dogs and a cat! It's a bit crazy at our house at times, but loads of fun!
​
What is your dance background? I took dance lessons back in the day at Crawfordsville Dance Academy...tap and jazz. I was also in show choir for many years!
​
What is your favorite genre of music to dance to? I LOVE dancing to ALL kinds of music, but...80's and hip hop are probably my favorite!
​
Why did you decide to participate in this Youth Service Bureau fundraiser? The Youth Service Bureau has SO many programs that support the children in our community. Being an educator for 17 years, I have seen the positive impact that these programs have made on many of the students I have taught. Dancing with the Montgomery County Stars is such a fun event that raises money for these programs. Thank you for helping to support the children in Crawfordsville.
​
Why should the public come to this event and support you and your partner? My partner says he is getting out of his comfort zone with this event, but his excitement and determination have inspired me! We have a fun dance lined up and we are ready to entertain you!
