How would you describe the perfect weekend?
I’m a high energy person who loves spending weekends outside, whether it is hiking, cycling, kayaking or climbing. I also enjoy volunteering at animal shelters or Habitat for Humanity, trivia nights, or cooking a fun meal and matching it with an amazing Pacific Northwest wine. I’m very lucky to have a high energy fiancée and dog to match!
