Short Bio

I had a career in sales, marketing, training and development. My final job was serving as the Kappa Alpha Theta House Mom at the University of Missouri. I was diagnosed with ILD in 2015 and after a biopsy in 2018 I was diagnosed with Hypersensitive Pnuemonitis. I had an exacerbation in fall 2019 and started using oxygen full time. This really changed my life. I recovered and continue to work on living my best life. I have a great family and support system.
