Hometown: Norton KS 

What do you do for work?

I run our household.  I take care of 31 acres, 2 kids, 2 dogs, chickens and a busy Hubby! I enjoy working with KC local and national brands and businesses to help them reach new goals & new people! 

Tell us about a passion you have or a fun project you’re working on right now? 

We want to start renovating the kitchen and also are working to rebuild a barn before Spring.  We will be adding some fainting goats and maybe a couple kittens plus more chickens. It’s always an adventure over here. 

Unique fact about you? 

I’m definitely more country than you would presume after meeting me for the first time. I also LOVE sports. Playing them and watching them.  

What do you love most about afloat? 

I love that I can gift items from local businesses to friends and family in the area.  Flowers & Chocolates are great, but a special candle or fragrance with a cute KC Beanie is WAY better.  Customizing gift giving is the best! 

Best way to celebrate your friends? 

A GLASS OF WINE AND TIME. 

Time is the best gift to give, but sometimes we just simply run out of it because life happens. When that happens, there is afloat & the promise of another time to get together! 

Favorite gift to give on afloat? and to whom? 

I gifted Nate his favorite fragrance from ULAH and he loved it.  I also can’t wait to gift the Grazing KC snacks & I’m looking forward to gifting some accessories and KC apparel.
