BIO
I have lived in the Morrow County area most of my life and now am raising my family here as well. I am married with two beautiful children, although our Doberman, Annie, seems more like a third child. In my spare time, I love spending time with my family. We love all things outdoors, whether that’s nights around a bonfire, days by the lake, or cheering on my husband and son as they ride their dirt bikes
