Q&A

What do you really do at work?
In my role as Membership Specialist, I assist NANO members. My role includes but is not limited to resolving any issues members have, help them identify resources and help new members navigate aspects of the website and registrations.

Describe your Perfect Day.
My perfect day starts with a good workout (yoga or a run) to energize my mind and body. Then a healthy wholesome breakfast (I love acai bowls, oatmeal with fruit or an egg Benedict). Then a nice relaxing day by the pool, lake or beach (I love being around water). It would end with
cuddles on the couch with my husband and two dogs (Reggie and Madison).

What’s your Superpower?
Finding efficient ways of accomplishing tasks.

What’s your life motto?
Always stay true to who you are because authenticity goes a long way.

What inspires you?
My family!
