I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. I attended BYU for my undergraduate degree and graduated with a BS in Human Development. I am currently furthering my studies at Boise State University to get a Master of Social Work. My personal research and career interests are in women's mental health, yet more specifically postpartum mental health. A few other interests and hobbies of mine are running, hiking, needlepoint embroidery, and interior design.
