Family & Home

My community is filled with friends and family who support my decision to adopt. We have traditions centered around children and families, which I believe will be an excellent foundation for children. Foothill Ranch, California is where I call home - it’s a great place to raise a family! It has all the amenities you would want for your child, plus plenty of opportunities for them to grow and explore. 

I am surrounded by the most loving and supportive family and friends. My parents have inspired me to be loving, strong, independent, and thoughtful of others. Because of them, I know I will be an amazing parent who is just as loving, caring, and supportive. I will also give your child every opportunity possible, just like my parents did for me. My mom (Nana) loves to be a grandma and would do anything for her grandkids. She can’t go to a store without picking something up for one of them. She offers to babysit when she can, and loves viewing pictures and videos she receives of them. My dad (papa) loved being a grandpa as well. He was so proud of his kids and grandkids and always showed them off at work and on the golf course. Unfortunately, he passed away in May 2022, is now in Heaven, and will always look over his family. I also have two sisters: one older (Kelly) and one younger (Courtney). They both live approximately 30 minutes from me, and I see them, brothers-in-law, and my niece and nephews often. In addition, I have a very supportive significant other, Steve. He and I have been together for 5 years. He is a very loving, faithful Christian man. He is a father and has numerous wonderful characteristics that this child will be blessed to have in their life. I also have many supportive extended family members, who mostly live in Iowa, but visit often.
