Biography

Favorite Book
My favorite fiction book from the last decade or so is The Martian by Andy Weir. Beyond being a great piece of science fiction, the main character's struggle to survive against overwhelming odds is inspiring.

What's your secret skill or something people might be surprised to learn about you?
I enjoy cooking, especially baking. My specialty is pies--apple, blueberry, strawberry, pumpkin--I love them all. I once had someone propose marriage to me for my apple pie.

How do you like to spend your downtime?
Skiing, camping, and backpacking

What do you enjoy most about Sandia Prep?
I love the genuine sense of community among the students, families, faculty, and staff.
