About ME

On both sides of my family, there have been many adoptions. My mom’s father was adopted, and my mom adopted my cousin (her nephew) after my uncle passed away. On my dad’s side, my aunt also was adopted. When thinking about starting a family, the hope to adopt was in the forefront of my heart. 

What i like to do for Fun

My favorite thing to do is to travel, see the world, and learn about other cultures. As a family, we prioritize going on vacations together because it’s the perfect way for us to connect and create long-lasting memories. In recent years, we’ve gone to Alaska, France, Italy, Spain, Greece, and Mexico together. Since my dad was born in Jamaica, I have extended family in the Caribbean and have visited there as well. Since Chase was born, we have taken trips to Aruba and also California and Kentucky where we have family.  I look forward to venturing to new places with Chase and a little brother of sister and playmate, as I share my love of travel, different cultures, and the beauty in diversity.  

In addition to traveling, I love to dance and exercise! I’ve been an athlete my entire life and played volleyball in college, so staying fit is an important part of my lifestyle. I have been taking Zumba classes for seven years and have an amazing, supportive community of friends. We always say that Zumba brought us together, but love keeps us together. 

I’ve always had a passion for interior design and I’m an avid watcher of HGTV.  If I run out of projects and rooms at my house, I am usually helping friends of family pick out items for their homes.  My biggest project now is helping my mom renovate her kitchen, living room and first floor bathroom.
