Family First
The most important and hardest job God presented Heather with is being a mother. Every day is filled with ensuring these four beautiful mini humans feel loved, heard, and are kept accountable.
Of all of her careers, being a mother is one of her greatest accomplishments and also the one that stirs up the most fear -- because for Heather, it is the job with the highest stakes.
As a family, they are silly and giggly -- they love encouraging and cheering each other on, while also competitively beating each other at new board games.
“You want to compose a good world — it’s an honorable and noble profession.”

Finding Peace
Heather finds her peace by exploring the outdoors and can typically be found hiking the rustic trails or kayaking lakes and rivers. Her favorite park to hike, so far, was the Rocky Mountains in 2020 while visiting Estes Park.
