Personal
I'm a lifelong Seattle native and proud "Double Dawg." In my spare time, I enjoy horseback riding and competing in horse shows with my horse Carma, downhill skiing, hiking, and surfing. My husband and I also enjoy traveling together, and have been to Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Myanmar, and Thailand. I have also traveled to Bhutan and Nepal.
