Family Information

I am an only child and live in Des Moines, Iowa with my mom, dad, and dog. Although it’s sometimes hard to not have siblings, I love the quality time I’ve been able to spend with my parents. The photo on the left is of my parents and me at my high school senior art show. They’ve always supported me in my school activities.


The funny looking fur-ball on the right is my dog, Snickers. I’ve always called him my “little brother” since I don’t have siblings. He’s a typical old, grouchy dog now, but back in his prime, he would chase those rabbits as if his life depended on it. He thinks he’s a Rottweiler and does his best to bark even at a passing leaf on the deck, but he’s a softy on the inside.
