Favorite Activities: Kayaking, participating in 5K walks/runs while wearing a tutu, and cooking (even if my food doesn’t always turn out well). I find joy and peace in everyday life here in Alaska, whether I’m chasing the Northern Lights, hiking rugged trails, or gardening. Essentially, I love being outdoors!
