Personal Blog and Professional Portfolio
It's been a while since I've posted and I could write paragraphs about why I fell into a writer's block slump, but instead of dwelling on the mundane, let's talk about my first big trip post-COVID. ~ Now I say "post-COVID" very lightly. It's not over and it probably won't be for a little while... Continue Reading →
(To be completely candid, I did not drink beer at the end of the hike, I had wine.) A lot of people are going to write about how hard 2020 was and how much it sucked and how they are throwing it away and hoping for the best in 2021. Not to sound cliché, but... Continue Reading →
The East Troublesome Fire was first reported two months ago today in the Arapahoe National Forest northeast of the town of Kremmling in Grand County, CO, my home county. A week later the fire grew at a rate not commonly seen; the fire spread from 18,000 acres to 187,000 in 24 hours. The town of... Continue Reading →
Boy has it been an interesting summer. So many things have been cancelled or put on hold and almost everyone I know is still grappling with the changes this pandemic has forced on us all. I had concerts rescheduled for next year, work trips put on hold and plans for the summer completely changed but... Continue Reading →
Well I'm sure back in January no one was prepared for what is currently happening in the world. I for one, was setting goals for myself with the mindset that it was going to be a normal year. I was hoping to do so many things that have unfortunately been put on hold BUT I'm... Continue Reading →
The new year, and new decade for that matter, snuck up on me way too quickly. I feel as though this last year went by in a blink of an eye and now it's over and it's 2020. I've never been a New Year's resolutions type of person and last year I think I set... Continue Reading →
A couple weekends ago I took a chance at a local craft fair and got a booth for some of my crocheted ornaments. I made a few mini stockings last Christmas for some small gift add-ons and gift card holders and several people thought they were really cute and suggested I make more and try... Continue Reading →
When you start a new position it's exciting and scary all at once. When I finished college and decided to take a break by working at my usual summer job in my hometown instead of jumping straight into the workforce I never thought (and definitely wasn't planning) that I would land a job within my...

If you follow me on other social channels, you might already know that I have finally moved into a career that I can use my expensive degree for. That career is with The Alderwood Group whose main focus is resort management. The company has properties across the United States, one in Canada and even one... Continue Reading →
With my move back home after graduation came many opportunities. One of which being a chance to go back to high school to volunteer with various programs. Now my high school is kind of unique with a very special program called Adventure Education. It gets students out and in nature with a variety of trips.... Continue Reading →
A lot has happened in the past three months: I've graduated college, I've moved home and now I'm trying to find my way and prepare for my future. The weeks leading up to my college graduation were confusing, exciting and scary. I wasn't sure how to feel about finishing my college career and moving on... Continue Reading →
Well, I haven't exactly been updating this website very often, with portfolio pieces or blog posts. So it seems fit that my first post of the year is about New Year's Resolutions and the first one, to post on here more often. I have never set New Year's Resolutions because I honestly felt they were... Continue Reading →
