HOBBIES AND INTERESTS


I prefer to be active and enjoy weightlifting, running, and yoga/Pilates. Other activities I like include scuba diving, surfing, hiking, and soccer. I am an avid reader; my goal is to read 50 books this year. Having grown up in Florida, I love being outside (of course with sun protection) and am working on producing a large vegetable and flower garden this season. I value travel and achieved my goal of visiting all seven continents this year, however I’m always looking for my next adventure.
