I was born in the small town of Willow Creek. My family and I live in a quaint little house on Elm Street with white picket fences. My dad is a carpenter and my mom is an art teacher at the local elementary school. They're both super sweet, but we can get pretty rowdy when it comes to sports days (I'm talking football Sundays!). Growing up, I had to learn how to navigate the world being the smallest kid in class - always a little late to the party and often the target of bullying by my peers who didn't understand what it means to be unique. But Momma used to tell me that "being small doesn't mean you're not mighty," so whenever someone would try to put me down, I'd just stand up straighter and say, "Watch out, world!" That usually shut them up pretty quick.

My favorite pastime is trying new recipes in the kitchen - especially ones with sugar and chocolate! There's nothing quite like whipping up a batch of cookie dough while watching the sunset. Sometimes I'll sneak into Momma's studio after dinner to dabble in painting or drawing. She says it's where my "real" talent lies, but I'm not so sure about that... I mean, can you really make a living off art? It seems like just a hobby - a fun way to express yourself! When the weekends roll around, I love taking long walks through the nearby woods with my best friend Emma. We'll talk
