I have been a volunteer firefighter with the South Hays Fire Department based in San Marcos, TX since October 2022. I am a full-time career Firefighter at Westlake Fire Department ESD 9 in Travis County. I run my own Massage Therapy business in the Austin and San Marcos areas, and I have been doing that since 2019. I was a soccer player most of my life, playing for nearly 22 years and coaching for roughly 10 years. I received a scholarship and played at a Division 1 school in Southern California, and got to compete Semi-professionally and professionally in my career. I am an adventurous person who enjoys any outdoor activity, doing puzzles, and reading in a hammock. I come from a large family, and a long line of first responders.
