I was lucky enough to live in North Carolina for three years after graduating from Iowa State University. I was raised in a smaller town than Cresco and had big dreams to chase. So, I followed my heart (and the love of my life) to North Carolina. I met the most inspiring people in my life there.

Although I do miss pimento cheese, hush puppies, both the mountains and ocean, and the sweet twang of a southern accent, nothing beats the home Iowa provides. There are quality people here, folks, along with those rolling fields of corn.

I am glad you found a home in Iowa!
