EDUCATION
I am a student at the University of Minnesota majoring in business specializing in Human Resources. I am on Wiki because I am taking a Technical and Professional writing course through the University of Minnesota where we have a project developing a textbook using this site.

INTERESTS
I currently nanny for a family on Lake Minnetonka. They have two boys, Willy (three) and Levi (one). I have been with them since Willy was born. I absolutely adore them and wish I could do this as a full time job. I enjoy watching them grow and incorporating what I have learned in child development classes into our activities. I also really like Yoga. I like to do the "hot yoga" at 103 degrees. I find it to be a great workout. The stretching combined with strength training really helps me stay in shape. Core Power Yoga is my favorite place to do yoga. I have provided there link and if you mention my name and get a free unlimited week pass! Core Power Yoga Website My family is very into football. My grandfather is in two footbal Hall of Fames, my two older brothers are football coaches, my one younger brother plays on the offensive line, and my mother organized the little league in my hometown. Being that I was raised to love the game of football, I enjoy watching the Golden Gophers football team every year. I have been going to their games since I was a little girl. Another favorite thing of mine to do is napping. I find that I usually need 9 hours of sleep minimum but I like twelve. For some reason I am always tired and have few things that actually "energize me". Three years ago, we bought our second golden retriever, who was a much more energized dog than our first one. We were not used to this and her pent up energy turned into severe aggression. She used attacking as her way to get out this pent up energy. However, we then agreed to take her back to the breeder and learn how to help rehabilitate her by getting her excess energy out in positive ways (runs, walks, playing fetch, etc) We have found this has worked extremely well. She is no longer an aggressive dog.

FAVORITES
TV show: '' The Office. I actually contracted the writer, co-producer, and actor B.J Novak from The Office to come and do a comedy act at the University of Minnesota. I spent a lot of time with him while he was here since I was in charge of him. His show was fantastic and he greatly exceeded our expectations. While The Office is my favorite TV show, my favorite guility pleasure TV show would be any of the trashy reality shows. :-) Music: I like anything. I grew up with some hip hop like Lauryn Hill etc, but now I like anything from Jay-Z, Lady Gaga, Faith Hill, to John Coltrane. Movies: I am not a big movie watcher, however I am usually into comedies such as The Hangover, Role Modles , or anything back in the day like Clueless  Books: Right now I'm reading the Chelsea Handler books Are You There Vodka, It's me, Chelsea and My Horizontal Life . They are knee-slap funny. I would suggest them to anyone. I just finished reading Eat, Love, Pray . That book was very inspirational and I would also recommend that to anyone. Place: My cabin in Brainerd with my family.''
