Fun facts

My birthday is on Halloween. I am the oldest of 5 girls. My husband, Sean, and I own Sunset Manufacturing in St. Joseph, which specializes in sheet metal forming and fabrication. We have 5 kids and will celebrate 25 years of marriage in June 2020. My husband and I met in a community theater production of “Camelot” in 1993, and lucky for us, our love of music and theater was passed down to our children.

Favorites:
  • Food – Sushi and seafood
  • Place I’ve visited – Ireland
  • Movie – “Love Actually”
  • Book – “The Dovekeepers” by Alice Hoffman
  • Activity – Spending time with family and friends that always results in lots of laughter and hilarious memories:)
