When I’m not at Epic races I work full-time on tax software and spend time with my husband, John. I started at Epic this year (2023) after responding to an internet listing last year – I was surprised and super excited to be called!
My super-power is sleeping – I am a strong believer of getting enough rest to take on the day (I know, boring…right? but its really key to me!) What’s on my bucket list? Travel to Turkey and Portugal. Let me know if anyone’s heading to either, I may want to tag along.
My hidden talent is I am part of the population fluent in a second language: I was partially raised speaking Spanish, so I speak Spanish. I like Cardio over Weights and Android over Apple – I prefer cats to dogs, only because they’re easier to care for… I’ve had both.
Similar to many programmer/software people I’m an introvert and prefer smaller gatherings. I am NOT a programmer tho… pet peeve: being called a programmer because I work with software. Thanks for the questions! I can’t wait to have time to talk to more people live and in person at the races. My favorite race Epic does is the Ann Arbor Marathon – I think its fantastic that there is one, and I ran it as a 10K years ago.
