Fun Facts
What drew you to HEI, and what excites you most about joining our team? I was drawn to HEI because of the company’s dedication to community. Most of the employee videos talked about how great the community and environment of HEI is and how other staff members welcomed them. I’m excited to learn as much as I can from my team!
What do you enjoy doing outside of work? I enjoy all types of media; books, podcasts, TV, movies. They’re all good background noise for when I crochet and knit. I just finished knitting a hood, perfect for Minnesota winters, and for my next project I want to make a vest.
What’s your favorite way to relax and unwind after a busy day? After a long day, I enjoy going to the gym and then getting a little farther in my current knitting project. If we have time, my boyfriend and I love sneaking in a game of Mario Party.
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why? I would want to go to Australia. My dad is from Australia so it would be nice to see my extended family and see where he grew up.
What’s your favorite snack? I love a good salty snack like Cheez-its, Goldfish, and pretzels.
What is your favorite fuel for staying energized (type of coffee, tea, energy drink, etc.)? In the morning, I love a good cup of black coffee. Once the afternoon hits, I try to stick with tea or a diet soda.
