Family
My family in Switzerland includes my 4-year-old daughter, Mila, and my partner and I are expecting another child in July. Back in America I have four sisters and two brothers (Britney 35, Isabella 17, Emily 15, Hensley 8, Bently 12 and Conrad 10)
Greatest Accomplishment
How does one determine this? I am very proud of how cute caring and kind my daughter is.
Interesting Story
I quit running after my coach in college was let go and only really came back after moving to Switzerland. I did not think I would qualify when I did, but i just had a perfect day in Valencia. This was on the very last day of the qualifying window.
