My love for family history developed at a young age out of the pursuit of the answer to the universal question, "Who am I?" This shifted into a desire to help others in their search as well. Turning my hobby into a profession, I completed Boston University’s Certificate in Genealogical Research in 2018 and graduated from the ProGen Study Group 38.

My passion within the varied field of genealogy is finding birth families, and I volunteer for the non-profit 325Kamra, Inc., which assists Korean Adoptees in getting DNA testing and finding their birth families. In December 2019, I became a participant as an investigative genetic genealogist for Barbara Rae-Venter's Firebird Forensics Group. My memberships include the Utah Genealogical Association, the Association of Professional Genealogists, the National Genealogical Society, the California Genealogical Society, and the Sacramento German Genealogy Society.

​Although genetic genealogy is my focus, other research interests include the following areas: Ashkenazi Jewish, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, San Francisco, and Yuba County, California.

My love of all things genealogy takes up most of my time, however I also enjoy taking road trips with my husband, three children, three adopted Belgian Sheepdogs, and two adopted bunnies.
