Who are you?
I am a fun loving, single gal who loves a little adventure! People think that I am a little introverted, but once you get to know me, look out! J I am a dedicated friend and will do most anything for those close to me. I consider myself a little bit of a home-buddy, but if you ask me out, I’m there! I have a wonderful daughter, who I am very proud of. Although, I doubt myself from time to time, I guess I must have done something right…I know what I want, but sometimes the road is a little longer and torturous than I wish it was. But needless to say, the journey has been fun and interesting, and I’ve met some true friends along the way.

How long have you been riding and what do you ride?
That's a hard one to answer. let's see, I used to ride behind my brother on his Honda 600. we had to sneak out to do it cuz my parents would have freaked out!. But my 1st solo ride was on a Honda 50. don't remember the year, probably the year they came out! That's when I got the bug for sure! Many years followed with desert trips, 3 wheelers, quads. River trips with Seadoo's were also taking up my weekends! Got my 1st street bike in 2000, a Buell- moved on to a Yamaha V Star 650 and I'm currently riding a Yamaha V star 1100.

Why did you start riding?
I was in a bit of a life transition, wanted to set myself free, feel the wind in my hair, and meet some women that lived their lives with that same desire for adventure that I have. So far, so good!

Why are you doing the Journey to Graceland?
I love riding, and riding with my friends. With Jett being so passionate about visiting Graceland on a bike ride, there was no way I couldn't jump on board. I have had the awesome experience of traveling thru other states on my bike and many of this group has not. I know this is something they will treasure in their memory forever, as I do with my past trips. Being part of a journey with fun, laughter, frustration, and challenges like we will have, is what is is all about for me.

What, if anything, does Graceland represent to you?
An excuse for a vacation on 2-wheels, and with my sisters…do I need any other reason??

Name one obstacle you overcame as a child, and how that shaped you today.

Name one thing that the Girlz of Graceland would be surprised to know about you.
