STORYTELLING INTERESTS

I taught myself to read when I was four by memorizing the story books that my parents read to me. As a result, it is hard for me to not memorize stories. As I continue on my storytelling journey, by primary goal is to learn to tell naturally without feeling the need to have each performance be identical.

I am primarily interested in animal stories, stories about outdoor adventures, and stories about hope and perseverance.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

I am a true bibliophile, but when I am not reading I enjoy playing with my dogs, Hayley and Shayna. I also love to be outdoors, especially on the water.
