INTERESTS/HOBBIES:
I'm a big crafter. I love creating things whether it's sewing, crocheting, or just building stuff. I cosplay - I love dressing up as my favorite characters from video games and movies. I'm also a certified pastry chef, so I love to bake and make edible works of art. When I'm not crafting or baking, I love to go hiking with my husband. My friends and I are big board game players. We have a game night once a month.
