I have always loved the ocean. My family and I went to Cape Cod, MA, each summer for vacation and I grew up in CT and went to the beach whenever possible. I have always loved animals … I actively participated in Vo-Ag and FFA in high school, worked at a veterinary clinic and raised chickens in my backyard.

I remember all the animals we had growing up and I remember my experiences on various farms.
