I have been hitting the Plains every year since 2003 with Roger Hill and/or David Gold (Silver Lining Tours). After my first chasing experience, I became seriously interested in meteorology. I enrolled in Penn State's certificate of achievement program and graduated in 2006. Currently, I am employed as a registered nurse. Other hobbies include singing, songwriting, guitar, running, dancing, endurance races. I have two cats, and I was born and raised in Nova Scotia (but have been in Pennsylvania for many years).
