Born and raised in San Diego, I’ve been loving life in Spokane for the past two years. At 32, I’m married to my high school sweetheart, and we have two amazing kids: a 6-month-old girl and a 3-year-old boy. We’re fully embracing the Spokane lifestyle with our 9 goats, 2 sheep, 32 chickens, and 4 dogs.

As a millennial, I love my emotional support Stanley, Taylor Swift, and reality TV. Let’s have some fun together!
