Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, New York. Cornish College of the Arts, Seattle, Washington (BFA).

What brought you to Montana?

I grew up in the foothills of the northern Sierra Nevada Mountains in California and Montana reminds me of this area. I love living here and I’m so grateful to build my life here!

What are your interests outside the University and FMRWM?

Music, art, tango and latin dancing, hiking, downhill and xc skiing, cooking, travel and more... I grew up playing violin and I will forever be learning banjo. I had the pleasure of being a part of two different acoustic bands in Butte for about 5 years before moving to Missoula.

What's your favorite book?

I really enjoy reading about health, nutrition and wellness.
