I was born and lived in Pennsylvania until I was 9. My family moved to Ocala, FL and I have been here for over 25 years. I consider myself a "converted" Floridian. I left Ocala to attend school at the University of Florida where I graduated with a BS in Management. Go Gators! I am an avid Gator sports fan and love to do anything outdoors with my family. I have a daughter that is almost 2 and she is the light of my life. I consider Ocala my hometown and am blessed to have seen it grow by leaps and bounds over the last 25 years. It's a great feeling to run into someone you know every time you are out and about. I love a challenge and am a bit of a dreamer but it has served me well.
