Systems test engineer. I get to put the newest latest puzzles together and make sure the pieces fit flawlessly. The tasks include training, troubleshooting, and best of all, teamwork.

Not only that, but we rejoice in our suffering, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope. Romans 5:3-4
I jumped off a WWII concrete ship and snorkeled in and around the anvils that sank, it in the Bahamas.
The Rebelle really embraces my values, with women supporting women to reach outside their comfort zone, connect, and conquer that "one thing". The will has been there, I just had to find a way. I love everything about the event. I have a vehicle, a partner, and the health and support to make it happen!
My husband for the example he sets when no one is watching and the patience, love and support he demonstrates. We lean on each other as we walk, stumble, run, fall, fly through this journey of life.
Wheel of Fortune show, City Slickers movie, I Corinthians in the Bible.
Touring Northern Italy by train with my mom for 2 weeks in my 20's, before smart phones or Airbnb's, crossing family roots.
Get Glad, not mad. Lol. Honor my values, see the wild West -offroad, connect.
God, nature, animals, family. Health and fitness, TKD, fun and games, family and friends. Adult tinker toys.
I learned the role of spotter and pit crew for my husband’s family hobby in asphalt circle track racing in 2017, supporting his Nascar mini mods track champion in 2019. He also taught me the ropes of a spotter in rock crawling off-road in a Ford F-150. There is so much more to motorsports than I ever imagined growing up, outside of it.
On Trac experience at Summitt Point Motorsports, Inwood, WV. Doing my best to keep up with a group running laps on a road course in a 2017 Ford Mustang GT.
Taking care of family vehicles, changing spark plugs, family car trips, driving a tractor on grandparents farm, convincing my parents to get a stick shift for me to learn and drive.

I can say my ABC's backwards in 3 seconds.
I chose to compete in Rebelle because of the incredible stories shared by our previous Rebelles from Iridium. One phrase that really stuck with me was, "there is nothing like it." That sentiment was the main driver that sparked my interest and inspired me to take part.
My dad inspires me the most. Ever since I was a little girl, I remember playing little games with him. My favorite game was seeing who can find the biggest blueberry in the carton. Little did I know, it was his way of instilling competitiveness in me at a young age. He is also the one that got me into all sports such as soccer, tennis, softball, running, etc. you name it, I excelled in it. He is my biggest fan and my #1 supporter in everything I do.

My greatest adventure to date was traveling to Europe and going to Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, and Switzerland. I ate lots of food, made my own chocolate bar, went to the top of the Swiss Alps, saw a tom of castles, went to the BMW museum, and so much more
My competition objective is to have a once in a life time experience. As a rookie, I also plan on giving it my best shot.
Outside of work, I love to travel to any place where there is a beach. This year so far, I have been to 4 states and 1 country. I plan to travel to 2 more states and 2 more countries before the end of the year. I also love to go to the gym, read my bible, watching hockey, going on long walks with the dog, tan, and hang out at home for my recovery (lazy) days.
I am going in as a rookie this year, so I have limited experience with motorsports. However, I used to go off-roading a lot in high school and go drifting around canyons in my old BMW.
My coolest experience was doing backflips on a trampoline on the top of the Swiss Alps.
One thing I will never forget is my first car, Roxanne. She was a 2019 BMW 330i that I was gifted for my 16th birthday in high school. Roxanne took me through all my adventures in high school, college, and my first corporate job at Iridium. Sadly, she had to be sold late last year in 2024. She was the best first car a girl could ever ask for.
