My love for animals began at a very early age. Our family has always had dogs since I can remember. Growing up in the Midwest, all of our neighbors had dogs and cats too. After my graduation from The University of Oklahoma in Advertising, I embarked on my current career in the beverage alcohol business. I was fortunate to have Eastman in my life for 17 years; he was a Spitz-pom mix who was found in the back room of a convenience store in Eastman GA after being found on the side of the road. Before he could be taken to the shelter, I knew he belonged with me. Since Eastman is no longer with us, my love for pets still resonates with me and Fetch is the perfect way for me to interact with cats, dogs and even rabbits! Since 2006, I have competed in 19 triathlons including one full Ironman distance. I am also an official for the USA Triathlon organization. I also enjoy golfing, traveling and spending time with my amazing fiance, who is a restaurant owner and a CIA trained chef (that is Culinary Institute of America, not the other CIA!).
