I have always enjoyed volunteering locally starting at the Thayer Nursing Home when I was twelve and then as an adult going on Medical Mission trips starting in my twenties. I love being involved in the community with various activities, including serving on the State Board of Education, project manager of SOARHigh phase 2 through HASS LLC, MSU Board of Trusties, as well as serving in the past on the MSU Board of Governors, IMDTRF, and the Missouri PT Commission of BOHA. If I had endless resources I would travel regularly and ride horses. My most recent trip was to South America in Chile with my family.
