🌍✨ Happy International HR Day! ✨🌍
Today’s a special reminder of why I love what I do.
HR is so much more than policies and paperwork—it’s about people. It’s about being a steady support, creating space for others to grow, and helping teams navigate change with compassion and purpose.
I’m incredibly proud to be part of a profession that champions connection, development, and belonging. Whether it’s coaching a leader, supporting someone through a tough moment, or building programs that bring out the best in others—this work is personal and meaningful.
To my fellow HR professionals: thank you for all the unseen, heartfelt, and powerful work you do every day. 💛

Weekend weddings are in full swing, and I couldn’t be more honored to be part of these beautiful moments.
Whether it’s an intimate elopement, a backyard ceremony, or something spontaneous, I’m here to help make it official—with heart, warmth, and a personal touch.
Love looks different for everyone, and all are welcome here. 💍🌈
Let's talk if you're planning your special day (or thinking about it!). I offer custom ceremonies that feel like you.

Here’s a quick tip to make your notary appointment a breeze: bring a valid photo ID!
I know it’s easy to forget (especially with everything else on your mind), but having your ID ready is the #1 way to avoid hiccups and keep things stress-free.
📌 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞:
✅ It’s not expired
✅ The name matches your documents
✅ It’s a government-issued photo ID (like a driver’s license or passport)
It’s a tiny detail that makes a big difference and keeps things moving smoothly for everyone involved.
Do you need any help figuring out what's acceptable? I’ve got you. I’m just a message away!

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’ve officially finished my B.S. in Business Administration with a focus in Industrial/Organizational Psychology! It’s been a long road—filled with late nights, self-doubt, and moments where I wasn’t sure I could push through. But I did. And now, I’m stepping into the next big chapter: starting my M.S. in Psychology!
This isn’t just about earning another degree. It’s personal. Being adopted and having lived through trauma, I know firsthand how much the right support can change a person’s life. That’s why I’m so passionate about this field—because I want to be that person for others. I want to help people navigate their challenges, break cycles, and realize their full potential.
It’s both exciting and a little overwhelming to take this leap, but I know I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be. Here’s to the next chapter, to learning, growing, and making an impact in ways that truly matter!

As we near the holidays, I've been doing quite a bit of reflection myself, so I wanted to create this little image as your "December Self-Care" reminder:
It's easy to get caught up in all of the hustle and bustle of the holidays, but try to remember to take time for yourself. ❤️
2 months and 2 weeks ago, I had the privilege to marry my best friend. He is the most kindest person I've ever met. He goes along with all of my crazy plans, even getting a third dog!
He's the one I call to kill centipedes, the one I ask to get dishes from the top shelf, the one I snuggle while watching holiday movies, and the only one I'd brave the winter cold for. 🥶
This picture encompasses us so well. 😜
Here's to a lifetime of jokes, laughter, hard times, good times, and so much love and adventure. 🥂❤️
Thank you for choosing me to be your wife. I love you.

👰🏻♀️🤵🏻 9/20/2024
It was a stormy, on and off rain kind of day, but I wanted to walk down the aisle to my absolute best friend. Our officiant was my best friend's husband and we made sure to get our ceremony done in under 15 minutes!
While the official name change is in process...@4art_fr3ak , I am so proud and grateful to be your wife!
I can't wait for our mini getaway next weekend and even more excited to reach our One Year to go to Italy!
Anyone have any recommendations on where to go/stay/visit in Italy in Fall 2025!?
