Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
Texas is full of state parks, but some get far more recognition than others. Possum Kingdom State Park, about 90 minutes west of Fort Worth, has one of the longest shorelines and some of the darkest skies in the state. If you’ve never been before, it definitely belongs on your family’s bucket list for this summer.
