I received my Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice Administration from West Texas A&M University. Since graduating, I have lived in Amarillo TX, Denver CO, San Francisco CA, Lake Tahoe and Las Vegas, NV. I am a little crazier since high school and enjoy anything adventurous: caving, rock climbing, snow-shoeing, skydiving, rappeling, hiking, paintball, kayaking, rafting, skiing, canyoneering, etc...

I attended Amarillo High my junior and senior year. Prior to attending AHS, I went to school in Germany. My senior year was quite horrible emotionally due to my father being deployed to Iraq for the Persian Gulf War. I stayed glued to the TV news and cried a lot that year. Luckily, he returned safely one month before graduation. I made some awesome and lifelong friends at AHS in which I will always have fond memories with. The rest of high school is kind of a blur. I participated on the speech team and was in the German Club as well as a Sandie Spirit.

I worked at Wonderland Park at the ticket booth when I first moved to Amarillo (summer of 89). I was the hostess at Mr. Gattis my Junior year. All I had to do was greet people, smile and tell them if another line was open. Every easy job comes with a price and mine was wearing a tacky orange visor and ugly polyester shirt at Gattis. The best job I had was my senior year at Bestovall Fitness. Working at a gym kept me in great shape. They went out of business and started my first job out of High School at Hummers Sports Cafe. I worked there for 4 years before I joined the professional world.
