I was born (that’s exciting) and raised (that’s not) in Fargo, ND. After dilly-dallying around at the University of Central Florida – where I thought any color grass would be better than snow – I found my way home again and graduated from North Dakota State University with a degree in Journalism, Broadcast and Mass Communication Technologies and a minor in Advertising and Public Relations. I am currently pursuing my master’s in Integrated Marketing Communications through West Virginia University. I enjoy spending summers at the lake and the winters hibernating.
