My favorite place in town to hang out: I love Thornton's parks and trails.

What I like most about living here: I like the hard working families that share Thornton with me.

My interests and hobbies: Photography, travel, and history.

What is my favorite thing to cook: My father was a baker. I love to bake. When I bake, it brings a lot of wonderful memories of baking with him.
