I love helping others, which is why I chose to major in Dental Hygiene at the University of Alaska Anchorage. I'm also passionate about my little family, I'm married to a wonderful man, Tyler, and we have two fur-babies, Nala and Crowley. I love dogs! It would pain me to leave them for two weeks (to volunteer in Guatemala), but I know it is for a GREAT cause! And I know my family is behind me 100%.
