 Fun Facts :)


  • My eyes change colors with my mood. If I cry a lot, they turn green. If I’m happy, they turn blue, and if I’m bored or neutral, they stay grey.
  • I’ve taken piano lessons since I was about 10 or 11 and I just recently stopped playing.
  • I was homeschooled until my freshman year of high school. Not online schooled, but actually homeschooled. My mom was my teacher and we ordered books every year.
  • I work at the Albany Izzys and I love all my coworkers. However, my favorite coworker is a guy named Fernando, who works at Sizzlers as well as being a server at Izzys on weekends.
  • I live with my parents and my little sister, who is a freshman and still homeschooled.

I can’t help it.)

I just worked a 75 hour week last week. People are staying home more often and they're realizing that their yards aren't perfect, and when their neighbors see our trailer, they give us a call, and we get even more business.” What is your dream job?     “ I'm indecisive. I wanted to be in the blue collar field but I'm stuck between mechanic, welder, and landscaper. However, I'm leaning more towards landscaper at the moment.” What is the hardest thing you've gone through?     “ My grandma passing away on February 24th.” What is your favorite thing to do with your free time?     “ I like to build legos and go fishing and work...
